Located in the heart of the Dijon Sanctuary in the Burgundy region of France, near the Palace of the Dukes of Burgundy and facing Rue de la Miset, Notre-Dame Cathedral of Dijon is a masterpiece of 13th-century Gothic architecture. Its nearly 18-meter-high nave and the skillful use of flying buttresses allow the cathedral to exude a solemn religious atmosphere despite its limited size, while maintaining a solid and balanced architectural structure. The modest cathedral houses a statue of the Black Madonna and is adorned with two of Dijon's symbols: the Jacquemart bell and the owl. Notre-Dame Cathedral of Dijon was designated a French historical monument in 1840. For most of the people of Dijon, Notre-Dame Cathedral of Dijon is the most relatable church building, serving as a primary source of spiritual comfort for the city for centuries. Many major French cities, including Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris, have cathedrals, likely for hidden historical and cultural reasons.

The night view is super beautiful, and there are many great restaurants around. Don't miss it if you come here.

This church is very large and looks plain from the outside, but once you get inside you'll feel it has a sense of grace and elegance.

The Little Owl of Dijon is a famous sculpture on the north side of the Notre Dame Cathedral in Dijon, France. It has become the mascot of Dijon. Legend has it that if you touch it with your left hand and put your right hand on your left chest to make a wish, your wish will come true. The statue has been rubbed by many tourists and has become blurred. In addition, there are road signs with eagle patterns on the ground of Dijon Street. It runs through many streets in the old city of Dijon and is a special travel route marked by owls. Visitors can walk along the brass owl signs on the ground and visit 22 classic attractions in Dijon on foot.

I came to Paris with my family, initially thinking that seeing the architecture and taking photos at Notre Dame would be enough. However, since we were already there, I decided to try a Chinese-speaking guided tour. This decision proved to be absolutely right. It was probably the most worthwhile guided tour of our entire European trip, as I learned a lot of religious knowledge I didn't know before. The guide, I think his surname was Li, spoke very naturally, not just reading from a textbook, but connecting the history, architecture, religious stories, and development of Notre Dame with the development of Paris, incorporating a lot of information. Many things I initially thought I wouldn't understand became clear after listening. Especially the stories of the sculptures, rose windows, and fire restoration – seeing them after hearing them made all the difference. Europe is full of churches, and not understanding them can be quite frustrating. After today's tour, I felt like I had a sudden enlightenment. There was a small regret, though: some areas inside Notre Dame aren't free and require separate admission. We met at 4:30 PM today, and waited in line for 10 minutes to enter. The pace of the tour was excellent; the content was rich but not tiring, and there was no feeling of being rushed. We could ask questions anytime during the tour, and the guide patiently answered them. He was highly professional and very approachable. Today, after the Notre Dame tour, we also visited the Latin Quarter of Shakespeare and Company. This wasn't part of the tour itinerary, but the teacher gave us extra time for free because we enjoyed it. By the way, you can also pay to climb to the top of Notre Dame, but the kids couldn't climb, so we skipped it... Afterwards, we went back inside Notre Dame on our own and watched a mass. We found that because we had the guided tour, we understood many parts much better than before when we just took photos. If it's your first time in Paris, I highly recommend not trying to see it on your own. Notre Dame is free, but the guided tour is definitely worth it; it significantly enhances the entire experience. It was one of the most worthwhile activities on our trip, and I've already recommended it to anyone planning a trip to Paris. Also, try to go after 4:30 PM, otherwise the square gets very sunny. Also, Notre Dame has a dress code; you can't wear anything too revealing...

The food was mediocre and not worth the price, but the scenery was nice; we saw the entire Seine River in two hours. The service was poor; the set meal included a bottle of wine, and after I finished the first glass the waiter poured for me, it took 20 minutes for them to refill it.

it was a great experience with my friends to see the snow and top of europe, we do zip line and donut sliding, it was amazinggg
