Chartres

A couple of weeks ago Chris and I had a long weekend in France, that started with a night in Chartres, a city neither of us had visited before
Its full of beautiful medieval buildings, but what makes it one of the most popular places to visit in France is the cathedral.  Its the most complete Gothic Cathedral in existence, and it is stunning!

 

And we were lucky to be there for the last weekend of the Lumiere which runs all summer.

 

The lighting display is absolutely mesmerizing, its a work of art in its self, flowing naturally from one image into another, quite beautiful. 

All of this magic was being projected from a small window above the Tourist Information Office.

But it wasn't just the cathedral but twenty other buildings over the whole city, including bridges and river side wash houses......

.......now wouldn't it be amazing to have something like this on Town Church ?
