Amiens Cathedral!

Today I received a wonderful swap card from Lexman in France of the Amiens Cathedral! I love to swap cards particularly UNESCO ones with folks from all around the world...particularly of impressive religious buildings like this Cathedral.

Amiens Cathedral
Amiens Cathedral, in the heart of Picardy, is one of the largest 'classic' Gothic churches of the 13th century. It is notable for the coherence of its plan, the beauty of its three-tier interior elevation and the particularly fine display of sculptures on the principal facade and in the south transept. It was inscribed onto the UNESCO WHS list, reference number 162, in 1981.
