Who said Notre-Dame de Paris is more beautiful than this small town~.

Notre-Dame de Paris is located in the center of Paris, the capital of the French Republic, on the central west bank of the Seine River, facing the Paris City Hall and the Louvre across the river. It is the cathedral of the Catholic Archdiocese of Paris. 🌱 Notre-Dame de Paris is the most representative historical site, tourist attraction and religious site in Paris, and a landmark building of French and European literature and culture. The coronation ceremony of Napoleon I was held in Notre-Dame de Paris. Victor Hugo's novel "The Hunchback of Notre-Dame" is also named after it. 🌱 Notre-Dame de Paris is a Gothic building and the first Gothic church in the world in a complete sense. It is famous for its pioneering use of pointed rib arches and flying buttresses, and huge and colorful rose windows. The sculpture art and painting art of the building itself and the large number of art treasures collected in the church have extremely high historical and cultural value and world-renowned reputation. 🌱 The two towers of Notre-Dame de Paris are 69 meters high. It used to be the tallest building in Paris until the Eiffel Tower was completed in 1889. 🌱 Tourists can enter the south tower through the stairs, and the entrance of the stairs is located on the south side of the tower. There are a total of 387 steps on the stairs, which stop at the Gothic hall on the rose window floor. Tourists can overlook the landscape of Paris there, and can also appreciate the early paintings and sculptures of Notre-Dame de Paris. 🌱 In addition, in the Notre-Dame de Paris Square outside the entrance of Notre-Dame de Paris, there is a Point Zero monument, which is the starting point used by France to measure the mileage of various places across the country, and it has the symbolic meaning of the center of French culture. 🌱 On April 15, 2019, a major fire broke out in Notre-Dame de Paris, causing the roof spire and the main wooden structure roof to be burned, the lead tiles to melt, and three large holes to be burned in the stone arch roof. However, the front twin towers and the overall structure of the building were preserved, and most of the cultural relics, including the crown of thorns of Jesus, were rescued. The Notre-Dame de Paris treasure house is basically intact. At the time of the incident, Notre-Dame de Paris was undergoing renovation, and a short circuit in the wires may have caused the fire. After the fire, French President Emmanuel Macron announced the launch of a restoration project, and several French tycoons announced donations to assist in the restoration. The cultural relics were temporarily moved to the Louvre for restoration and preservation. The reconstruction of Notre-Dame de Paris began in 2021. The French government said it hopes to complete the reconstruction work before the spring of 2024 to catch up with the opening ceremony of the 2024 Summer Olympics. 🌱 Let's look forward to the rebuilt Notre-Dame de Paris together! ❤️
