Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris
Here are a few photographs from Notre Dame Cathedral. One of my most favorite spots in Paris! Photos from both 2004 and 2010.
Did you know that Notre Dame Cathedral will be 850 years old next year. 850! Which means that this stunning building was designed and built in 1263- 513 years before we signed the Declaration of Independence.
Not only is the outside of the building beautiful, but the inside is equally lovely. Particularly while looking up!
I have a vivid memory of standing in the cathedral marveling at its beauty and having a deep sense of the world being very big, yet very accessible. Along with a deep desire to explore more cultures and see more beauty.

Elizabeth...I have always loved your gargoyle photos! Love the juxtaposition of the austere gargoyles against the fabulous Paris cityscape. I think I know what I want for Xmas ....a collage of your gargoyle photos!
