The illusory Avignon, as a symbol of the South French style, is really every time I go to Avignon, I will be like being in a fairy tale dream. How dreamy people live here are.
The Cathedral of Notre Dame Avignon is located next to the Palais de Avignon, and on the other side is the Rock Park. The Cathedral of Notre Dame is the oldest religious building in Avignon and the most important Gothic building in the Middle Ages. The church can be visited in and out, and the interior space is not very large and has a very profound historical significance.
The cathedral is big, but not very beautiful.
The building is good, I like it very much, it is worth a visit.
Christianity is in the middle ages in the old town. Also, the Avignon Theatre Festival is the center of the world's theatre lovers.
The cathedral, next to the papal palace, is rebuilt in the middle of the 12th century and is the oldest religious building in Avignon. On the top of the bell tower of the cathedral, there is a huge statue of the Virgin, which is golden and glowing in the sun. In front of the main entrance of the church, a statue of the crucifixion of Jesus stands, and the best place to watch the Virgin project is the top floor of the tower of the papal palace.
