    The Moulin Rouge isnt that big to look at, I almost walked past it, not realising what it was.

    However it does look very distinctive when it's illuminated at night.

    The Pigalle & Place de Clichy area is lined with strip shows & sex shops

    This structure is an icon of Paris, a munument to a sordid and sexy past - possibly an excellent representation of the lady, Paris, as a whole.

    Despite being amongst the flashing lights and gaudy colours of this street, the Boulevard de Clichy, the red vanes of the windmill are still clear to anyone wandering down the street.

    Moulin Rouge obviously translates to Red Windmill, and has had a very vivid and interesting history. The recent hit movie of the same name has rekindled interest in this sight.

    Unless you go inside for one of the famous cabarets, there's not a huge amount to do. You can look at it, but that's about it. :) It's worth having a look at it in passing, but make sure you have other plans for the area - after seeing this I suggest a walk through the red light district and up to Montmartre and Sacre-Coeur.

    One of Paris' most famous landmarks, the Moulin Rouge ( Red Windmill) is located in Montemarte, the neighborhood made famous by Amelie. Unfortunately the surrounding blocks make up a mini red light district and detract a bit from this site. Shows are nightly and cost from about $90-160 depending on seat and dinner options

    Well I didn't go to the Moulin Rouge or Pigalle but I took some photos of the outside. The shows are expensive and apparently from reviews I have read; not that great anymore. Besides I think it is sexist so I wouldn't pay money to support them anyways.

    I’m not sure if this site should be here or as a tourist trap. Well…Moulin Rouge - so famous place, so famous cabaret. I didn’t expect I could see the world as it was decades ago here, but I had hope that I could find some atmosphere of those days. And here it is - small building and little red mill. Nothing else. I spent quite time here and tried to find any reason why people come here. And I didn’t. I couldn’t imagine how it looked like before. I felt disappointed and cheated. And then I started to laugh. Obviously, I was here too. Looking for the same thing as others - for lost time…

    This is probably the best known night club in the world. Paintings, movies and songs are made about the Moulin Rouge.

    Moulin Rouge. I didn't go in, just took a picture from the outside. It is located just below Montmartre and the beautiful Sacre Coeur.

    The legendary Parisian cabaret was founded in 1889. The French Cancan was created there.
    There are two shows each evening, one at 19.00 hrs and one at midnight.

    Moulin Rouge - well, I suppose you have to go see it, just to make sure it's really there, after you have heard so much about it. I haven't seen the shows yet, and i don't think I ever will... but I remember some VT members (Agbat maybe?) saying they are really good: very classy in their own way.
