Description
_______Like a courageous female captain steering her vessel of stone across the Seine river from time immemorial, Notre-Dame-de-Paris has been towering over the 'Ile de la cité', the very first settlement of a Celtic tribe called the Parisii, since the XIIth century. Lutetia, the former name of the city of Paris was then a little town ,first refered to by Julius Caesar, as early as 52 BC; it is likely that the site where Notre-Dame is now located, used to be a druidic place of worship, that was later replaced by a Gallic-Roman temple, then by a Christian basilica.
_______ Along with the Eiffel tower and the Louvre Palace and Museum, Notre-Dame is a must for those visiting Paris for the first time : nearly 13 million people enter and visit the cathedral annually!...
_______Thank you very much for your nice comments on my latest nightly capture here in my gallery ... Have a very nice weekend!

Va colorer tous mes rêves Et illumine l'aube
Regarde dans mes yeux, mon amour, et vois Toutes les belles choses que tu es pour moi
Notre petite étoile mélancolique Était bien trop haut Une larme a embrassé tes lèvres Et moi aussi Maintenant quand je me souviens du printemps Toute la joie que l'amour peut apporter je me souviendrai L'ombre de ton sourire
