On our travels recently, we've seemed to wander into several cathedrals. There's something about majestic buildings that were created with basic tools hundreds of year ago that just draw you in. The cathedral in Reims was no exception and rivaled that of Notre Dame in Paris. At night you could see it lit up from a distance and it was beautiful!
At 800 years old, it's looking pretty good! The Reims Cathedral was built after a fire destroyed a church in the same location in 1211. It was partially destroyed in WWI and has since been rebuilt. Not a shabby way to spend some time.
