Montparnasse Cemetery

During our spring trip to Paris we wandered into the enormous Montparnasse Cemetery. A calming outdoor space filled with intricate sepulchers, I was delighted to discover that Guy de Maupassant was buried there, along with Simone de Beauvoir, Margueritte Duras, and Camille Saint-Saëns. It's not as famous as Père Lachaise, but it's definitely worth a visit if you're in the 14th.
