No visible police

Some tourist places, in Paris, you can see visible police presence, in others, like the Butte Montmartre, almost never.

Do not think they are not there, do not think they do not look to defend tourists from pickpockets!

This man is reading his newspaper, but as soon as there is an incident, his is there, he is in fact surveying, or waiting for others strolling around in the middle of people, to be called.

Even at night, as I went out once to stroll, fast, a car came to see what I am doing, Ah! you live here, good stroll, then.

I felt well defended, not at all offended.

Lots and lots of people from all over the world come to see the Butte Montmartre, I felt reassured that discretly, there are always people to see all is going quiet.

Of course, not all does, all the time.

It is still better, in the middle of lots of people, to care for your pocket...
