("The blue is the light," Viollet-le-Duc said.) http://farm2.static.flicicr.com/1038/1193437476_b884354b70.jpg 3) Notre Dame -- you know it, but what matters is the transept with the 2 huge roses, the canonical rose windows; most of the church is late 12th cent, but the roses are 100 years later & far more extraordinary.
