Jewel of the city

The basilique of Saint Nazaire is undoubtedly an architectural marvel. Its interiors are fascinating. From the contents, to carvings on the wall and the mosaic. Especially when light passes through it is a special sight to experience. Having seen a number of basilica's in this and previous trips. I can say that the Basilica of Saint Nazaire is amongst the most impressive ones with its romanesque and gorhis styles at play. The stained glass windows can captivate you. If you are religious and here on a Sunday. You might even get to be there for the mass. It makes for a memorable experience. Besides, on a hot day of sightseeing when you come in here, it's such a relief with the indoors being cooler than outside. Puts you at ease and then the sight of the stained glass completely takes you to a different place. #myhiddengems #carcassonne #summerdestinations #europe #basilica #100waysoftravel #france
