Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris

We went during the week of Thanksgiving so the lines weren't too long to get in the tower. It was free with the Museum Pass, otherwise it was 7 euros. You have to walk up a very long spiral staircase to get to the top, but halfway through there is a gift shop for you to browse and rest. If you want to buy something, do it right away because you don't exit the same way. The very top was closed when we went, but we were up pretty high. The view was well worth all the stairs we had to climb. You can see the Eiffel Tower in the distance and obviously the Sen River, and a big castle on a hill in the other direction. The pictures turned out great, especially when you put a Gargoyle in the frame. You can get very creative.

Our tour guide every detail about Notre-Dame and it was wonderful. You must see this cathedral with a guide of some sort, be it a actual person or a taped recording.

First you can't beat the value....It doesn't cost anything to go inside the church. when we arrived they were just beginning the ceremony. We were handed a program that had every language you could think of and you could buy headphones that translated from Latin to whatever. It was beautiful and memorable. Everyone gives the french a hard time but it really wasn't that bad. If you are nice to them they are usually nice to you. Gotta watch the vendors and street merchants, but that is the same in any city or country

It was something I waited my entire life to see. When I first saw it, I was floored by the magnitude and beauty of the structure. It was completely amazing and I would go there again in a heartbeat.

WOW - the overall feel of the area and this cathedral were/are breathtaking. I definitely cannot wait to go back and spend a lot more time going from place to place.

if your into history go there, but if you have a family this is a boring place to go...its not that entertaining...the only thing enjoyed was the gargoyles...its to stuffy and hot....wont go again!!!!

The Notre Dame Cathedral is a very nice photo stop, both the front and the back. As a teenager, however, I found the inside very boring. I only did two relatively enjoyable things there, lighting a candle and buying a commemorative coin.

Flying up those stairs to see the views was so special though I got lost in all the crowds of people

Notre Dame was gorgeous! A Mass began while I was walking around and Notre Dame became what it is, it's absolutely incredible!!

This place was to crowded and to hot i won't be going again because i had an awful time
