In case you don’t know where Reims is located:

Ingrid and I have been in this area before, so this time we visited places we somehow ignored the first time. Like the Notre-Dame cathedral of Reims.

The cathedral is one of the most important Gothic buildings in Europe. The interior is overwhelming; the cathedral is 138 m long and 38 m high in the center.

The rose windows – in all the colors of the rainbow – are a real treat for the eyes.

The rose windows were a good occasion for Ingrid to test her new 75 – 300 mm lens. Anyway, this cathedral was built in the 13th century and was the place where many French kings were crowned. Nowadays, it’s one of the most popular touristic attractions of Reims. You can visit the cathedral 7 days a week, from 7.30 to 19.30, except during masses. There is no entrance fee.
