AMIENS

CATHEDRALE

This immense stone ship of a building is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.The harmony of its proportions,the purity of its lines, and its abundant statuary forming a lace curtain of stone, make this one of the most beautiful examples of Gothic art.It is also the largest Gothic edifice ever built.As a matter of fact, Notre-Dame de Paris could fit inside it twice over !
