Roman Catholic Churches: Notre Dame

Dylan and I passed by Notre Dame every single day of our two and a half week adventure. Each time, there was a thirty minute line of tourists waiting to enter the building. Each day we would say "tomorrow, the line will the shorter, we can go inside then." But then we woke up on the last full day we had in Paris and we still had not gone inside! We made it a priority to make Cathédrale Notre Dame de Paris our first stop on the last day.

The line went rather quickly, and once you were inside you were able to stay as long as you like. As we did in each church we went to while in Paris, we sat in the prayer area and thought of all family and friends that needed a prayer at the enchanting Notre Dame.

Dylan and I decided that we did not want to go to the top of the building (this was a several hour wait), instead we wanted to spend our time exploring inside the building. We stared at the stained glass windows for a long period of time, they display every color in a beautiful pattern.

Here are some of the photos we were able to capture of Cathédrale Notre Dame de Paris:
