i saw the west facade of Reims Cathedral in France and i felt
so tiny looking at it.
hmm, that cathedral is HUGE now that you mention it
and as far as Gothic architecture goes, i get awestruck by it, with all those details and exaggerations
and I'm think around the years 1225-1290 ish
it was like a race to make the biggest and extravagant buildings ever.
it is probably pretty.

It's very awe inspiring.
I prefer the Cathedral at Chartres. When you walk down the centre of the nave, you feel like you're walking into heaven with all the glass stained windows around and above you.
Peace.

BHut exactly that was the intention of the architects..to make people feel insignificant to the glory of God to which the cathedral was dedicated
