Overview of your Paris tour:

Parisian cemetery Pere Lachaise was established 220 years ago and still operates. It is said to be the most visited cemetery in the world. Some of the tombs of this romantic necropolis are impeccably groomed, others dilapidated and abandoned, while its tree-lined avenues are both overcrowded, peaceful and seductive. A tradition of strolling (hiking) through cemeteries appeared in Europe at the beginning of the 19th century, when the best selling book on the continent was a romantic novel by German writer Goethe, The Sorrows of Young Werther. With this tour, I invite you to follow this tradition.
