sa baie en font le site touristique le plus fréquenté de Normandie et
le troisième de France (après la tour Eiffel et le château de
Versailles) avec quelque 3 200 000 visiteurs chaque année. Classé
monument historique en 1874, le site figure depuis 1979 sur la liste du
patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO.
Notre-Dame de Paris
Notre-Dame de Paris is not the greatest of French cathedrals, but it is indisputably one of the finest ever produced Gothic architecture in France. This masterpiece, one of the best known symbols of the French capital, is located at the tip of the Ile de la Cité, the historic center of the city, near the banks of the Seine.
