It is here, in the heart of Paris that Maurice de Sully, bishop of Paris in the 12th century, began the construction of the cathedral "Notre Dame de Paris" (Our Lady of Paris). It is built on the site of St. Stephen's Cathedral and the main part was completed in approximately 1250, but of course several modifications have been made over time.

Along with St. Peter's Basilica in Rome, Notre Dame is one of the most famous and recognizable cathedral's in the world. Its beautiful carvings, buttresses, steon gargoyles and stained-glass windows are a perfect example of gothic art and architecture.

The cathedral was made famous after Victor Hugo published 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame'. An interesting fact is that all road distances are calculated from the 'zero kilometer' point located on the square in front of Notre-Dame.

The cathedral is open every day from 7:45 am to 6:45 pm and is free of charge. The towers, however, carry a charge, which I believe is approximately €8 ($12, 7 GBP) but are an absolute must for any visitor. There are an impressive 387 steps inside the steeple, and should you manage it to the top, you'll be rewarded with outstanding views of the flying buttresses, Île de la Cité ,spires, gargoyles and the cathedrals largest bell, the "Emmanuel Bell".

I recommend giving yourself time to explore the cathedral, both inside and out, but don't take the walk up to the tower unless you're feeling fit - there is no elevator! Also, generally waqtch out for pickpockets operating in the area. It is a major tourist site, so just be alert and enjoy the treat that is Notre Dame Cathedral.
