Les trésors de Paris - Sainte-Chapelle
The fires at Notre Dame this week, made me more mindful of all the other historical, religious, architectural treasures I think we take for granted in Paris. I've only visited Sainte-Chapelle once in 2008. I hope I will be able to visit Paris again and spend time in this beautiful sacred space.
