Köln

Köln cathedral from the inside. I'm not sure if it was allowed taking pictures, but I just took a few quick shots of it.

Is Notre Dame straight or not?

Notre Dame western facade restoration work has just been completed. The cathedral is now free of scaffholdings, for the first time in five years (maybe more). A tourist enjoys the sight.

Santa María de León Cathedral, also called The House of Light is situated in the city of León in north-west Spain. It was built on the site of a previous Roman hot baths of the 2nd century which, 800 years later, the emblematic king Ordoño II converted into a palace. Its doors, its impressive rose window, the choir (one of the oldest in the country) and the delicacy of some figures, like the venerated Virgen Blanca presiding over the constant traffic of visitors, are some of the not-to-be-missed features of this cathedral. The León Cathedral, dedicated to Santa María de la Regla, was declared of Cultural Interest in 1844. It is known as the Pulchra Leonina and it is a masterpiece of the Gothic style dominating the mid 13th century, by master architect Enrique. In the late 16th century it was virtually finished. It was erected on the site of Roman hot baths dating from the 2nd century, which were converted into a royal castle by king Ordoño II in the 10th century.

Prayer

This was taken in one of the Parisian churches famous for its pipe organ (I think it was St Etienne) but for once I concentrated on my fellow visitors.

A Unique View of Paris

I snapped this photograph from the stairwell inside the Musee D'Orsay in Paris, France. It is taken through one of the giant clocks that adorns the outside of the museum walls. In the center of the photo is the Sacre Couer (Sacred Heart) cathedral. If you haven't been to Paris, you might recognize this famous landmark from the French film 'Amelie' directed by Jean-Perre Jeunet starring Audrey Tatou.
