PARIS – In the north of Paris, the neighborhood of Montmartre is known for its Sacré Coeur Basilica perched on a hill, that offers splendid views of the capital.

The tourist favorite is also where the Amelie movie was filmed.

During the winter however, the neighborhood transforms into the city’s top ski destination. It doesn’t snow very often in Paris and when it does, it melts quite quickly, so you have to make the most of it!

Here is a video from Wednesday morning:
