Paris Part II - Da Vinci Code Tour Begins...

The woman's Da Vinci Code begins at Saint-Sulpice, where the villain comes to the church in search of the 'keystone'.

50mm, F1.7, 1/25 sec at ISO 400

It was erected over an ancient Romanesque church originally constructed during the 13th century and taken hundreds of years of work to become what it is today.

Interior of the church.

It was a rainy day, we then walked to Pantheon at Latin Quarter. I missed this during my visit last September.

Kids playing football at the square in front of Pantheon. Some of them could be the future stars!

By evening, we reached Notre Dame, which was featured in film Van Helsing, Amelie, Hunchback of Notre Dame etc. The visiting hour was over and it's a pity that we didn't go up to the top. I wanted to take some pictures as the view from top is great and my last visit was without DSLR. Anyway, the weather wasn't brilliant so we just leave it.

90mm, F4, 1/160 sec at ISO100 - taken at the garden behind the cathedral.
