- Today we took the Eurostar, a high speed train , from London to Paris. When in Paris we visited the Cathedral of Notre Dame. It is one of the most inspiring buildings, which gets its name from the Cathedra or Bishops throne which is housed in the Cathedral. Here are several pictures, I am returning for a more extended visit on Tuesday, and will write more at that time.
How long did it take to complete this feat?
ReplyDeleteThere seem to be many interesting statues on the cathedral such as the horned figures in the second picture. What do the horned figures and the statues from the third picture symbolize?
ReplyDeleteThe high ceilings as shone in the last picture hint towards a gothic style of architecture
ReplyDeleteWhat are some of the more notable differences in architecture between the two cities of Paris and London?
ReplyDeleteHow long does it take the EuroStar to travel from London to Paris? Did you have to go through customs on either side? Were there multiple stops on the way?
ReplyDeleteIs the cathedral still used as a modern day Catholic place of worship or just a tourist attraction?
ReplyDeleteOverall, what was your absolute favorite experience from your trip to Europe?
