Saint Chapelle

The Saint Chapelle church in Paris is only a stones throw from the much larger and more famous Notre Dame Cathedral yet the chapel proves that good things do come in small packages as its stained glass and vaulted roof are widely acclaimed as the most beautiful in the world.
On a clear, sunny day even the air appears to coloured in the redd’ish-blue hue created by the windows.

The Sainte Chapelle is within the law courts of Paris so you will have to go through security to enter. Once inside, you need to go into the church and upstairs – that is where the windows are. One of the most beautiful sights in Paris. You can bu a combined ticket with the Conciergerie – the prison where Marie Antoinette spent her last night alive…

There is also a take out place on the corner, and if you order a hot dog, the serve it on a baguette – its absolutely delicious!
