亚眠大教堂

Linyuki

到达亚眠后，步行至大教堂。远远看到教堂一角时，我们就惊呼“好高！”周围非旷野，在这居民聚居区里，教堂更显得鹤立鸡群。站在教堂的正立面，抬头仰望，就象面对一座兀然高起的山峰。亚眠大教堂是法国最大最宏伟的哥特式教堂，无论高度与长度，在法国都是占了“最”。教堂墙上多是落地大窗，使得内部明亮轻快；晨光透过玻璃花窗洒在白色石雕上，烙下柔和又缤纷的色彩。

亚眠大教堂在建筑史当中的地位非常高。是最高的中世纪教堂。极其雄伟的哥特式建筑形式。来到亚眠刚好赶上圣诞节的灯光彩绘。灯光彩绘惟妙惟肖。艺术感极佳。强烈推荐亚眠教堂的灯光秀。

2007年12月31号那天晚上7点我到这里来看实地历史演出,这是我第一次来看这场演出。这场五彩缤纷而又引人入胜的演出给我留下了很深刻的印象。先是用法文,然后用英文。8月份的时候我又来看夏天版的这场演出,这次是晚上10点半才开始,依然非常精彩,就好像回到过去一样,如果你去亚眠大教堂附近玩的话,一定不能错过这场演出,最主要的是,这是免费的。

在这个令人愉快的大学城做短暂停留是绝对值得的。穿过大教堂,你能看到一个建筑风格奇特的庭院,其中还有木结构呢。唱诗席是由木头和石头混合建造的,很雅致,一点也不像沙特尔的那样破坏美观。四周的扎染玻璃和石雕品都美极了。

我最近才刚去过亚眠大教堂,我必须得说这个教堂真的没有地下室。但是你可以通过爬307级阶梯到达塔顶,将整个城市的美景尽收眼底。关于灯火秀,我去年12月的时候看过,这确实值得观看一下,就在户外,教堂的前面。人们坐在草地上,静静地朝着西方观望。我推荐大家来亚眠大教堂参观参观,绝对不会让你失望的。

The Cathedrale is open to the public and is free to enter and walk around. It is just breathtaking! The architecture is magnificent.

I have seen most cathedrals in Europe - Notre Dame in Paris, the Dom in Cologne, that in Vienna, St Paul's and many more English cathedrals, the French churches/cathedrals in Reims, Metz, Chartres, Strasbourg, Lyon (?) & even Poitiers. Of course the Sagrada Familia and others in Spain, Austria, Belgium, Italy etc. But this one is so special! They are finishing up the renovation of the outside and it is spectacular! The statues inside and outside are so well done - it is amazing! Unfortunately, the original flooring is now in a museum, but the labyrinth effect has been duplicated. WOW, I cannot say enough good about this cathedral! My husband was able to take the audio tour from the Office of Tourism to learn more, he was duly impressed. Unfortunately, the ticket office in the cathedral guided him incorrectly for tickets to go up to the top, so he wasn't able - but we'll do it the next time! Buy tickets in advance, don't wait till the time of the visit!

A monument to visit ABSOLUTELY !!Do not forget the magnificent stalls, the stained glasses and the maze on the marble floor which could lead children from hell to paradise..

A visit to the cathedral is a must when near Amiens. One of the most beautiful and picturesque of all the cathedrals.

Amazing Church, just as good as it's namesake in Paris, also lucky enough to see the light show provided one warm September evening.

This is the biggest cathedral of its kind in France, slightly bigger than the Notre Dame in Paris. It's not the bigger aspect that I liked Notre Dame; when they're that big I can't really tell anyway, but what I did notice was the lack of crowds. We had time to really enjoy it and look around without hundreds of other people also there. And this was on a Saturday. One of the most fascinating parts of the visit were the pictures we saw in the gift shop next door of the inside of the cathedral covered in sandbags to protect it during the war.

As well as being incredibly large, this cathedral contains a number of interesting commemorations of various armies that participated in the liberation of Amiens from the Germans in 1918 which are worth seeing. Best of all is the illumination of the beautiful stonework of the front face of the edifice once it is dark. (I believe this only happens in summer, and possibly at Christmas time.) The lights and music bring the statues to life, and tell a great story.

An incredible feat of ancient architecture is an understatement here.Just driving up to this Cathedral makes your jaw drop as to how it can be so big and still be standing after so many years.Highly recommend hiring a local tour guide to show you around as there is so many interesting statues, sculptures and secrets all with fascinating histories. I never knew you could build a 16 story building inside it, but now I do.Plan on spending at least an hour here as there is so much to take in. Afterwards, walk around the nearby town. There are lots of interesting streets and architecture to discover as well plus many nice restaurants to choose from.

Catedral Notre Dame d'AMIENS is twice as size in comparison with NOTRE DAME de PARIS.It has the head of JOHN the BAPTIST ,which was brought from the JERUSALEM by the templars.It is well known for his labirynts from the floor.The kings of FRANCE after of period of fasten,dressed in a very poor shirt were waiting for the ill people.The ill people were making the labirynth and at the end they were expected by the KING of France,who was taking holy water from the priests and throw on the ill people,who were cured in a miraculous way.The KING of FRANCE were the only kings,who used to have the quality of sacerdots,being able to baptize,to marry and to make the sacred mass for dead people.

Taking a train from Paris was easier than we thought. Plan to stay all day, great cafes near by and locals are so happy to see you! Short walk from train station and the cathedral will take your breath away. We truly loved Amiens .
