Notre Dame Cathedral, Place where Marie Antoinette spent her last life


Day2:May 19th
First day of exploring Paris…
It was a gorgeous day. It was supposed to rain but it ended up being extremely hot with strong sun. Not being prepared for that had done a little harm on my body.

I started to feel little dizzy and my head was burnt as it observes a lot of heat from the sun.


We managed to get to the Notre Dame Cathedral. Oh boy, wasn't that beautiful. I was impressed with how intricate it was and its history. Stand Glass blew my mind. Photo is not enough to communicate its beauty. You really need to go see with your own eyes.


The point of dividing in a small group was not to lose each other but we ended up losing each other anyway and it was really hard to find people. We are supposed to remain quite as to show our respect. Hence, screaming someone’s name was not an option, which was why it was very difficult to find people.

We went to lunch and walked to the prison where Marie Antoinette spent her last life before executed. It was big and magnificent. It was cool to check out how the prison looked like back then and see how Marie Antoinette had a little bit better treatment then others.

We went to the Cathedral with awesome stand glass in. We were running out of time so it was only a quick visit. Regardless, it was totally worth checking out and was best way to end the day.
I walk back to the hotel from Notre Damn area with my roommate. It took about half and hour but it was nice walk. Surprisingly, we did not get lost at all. I guess I am figuring out what is around here. 
Since we were both exhausted from the day and a day before, we ended up taking a nap right after. The walk was the nest way to conclude the second day in Paris.
