Notre Dame de Paris

This is the Front of the Cathedral named Notre Dame do Paris. This translates to "Our Lady."









Inside the Cathedral are large stain glass windows. These represent the new Gothic art and are unlike anything made as part of the Romanesque architecture.










The Cathedral is filled with many intricate stone carvings. Many of these have been restored because of there old age.









The Cathedral also has many flying buttresses as part of its Gothic design.
They stabilize the thin walls so more windows can be added (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notre_Dame_de_Paris).
