When we hear the term "church in France," the first place we will think of is probably Notre Dame Cathedral, even if we’ve never visited this famous site. However, in Paris’ River Seine, on the island of Île de la Cité, there is a church that can certainly compete with the famous Notre Dame. With intricately crocketed gables and colorful windows, and the precise design of every detail, the Sainte - Chapelle Church can certainly be named "the most beautiful church in France". Don’t believe me? Take a look at the following pictures and discover the beauty of this impressive building for yourself…
The church, whose construction was completed in 1248 AD, was built during the reign of French king Louis IX in the Gothic style that was very popular during that time.
