Mark and Vicki in Paris.
A stop at the Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris is more than just sightseeing; it’s a witness to resilience. Even as the spire and roof are being painstakingly restored following the 2019 fire, the “Grand Dame” of Paris remains the architectural and spiritual heart of the city.
Standing in the Parvis de Notre-Dame—the literal “Point Zero” from which all distances in France are measured—you can’t help but be struck by the defiant beauty of the twin Gothic towers.
