Notre-Dame Cathedral is a famous cathedral in Paris, France. Located on the Île de la Cité, just beside the River Seine, the Notre-Dame Cathedral dates back to 1163, and was completed in 1345.

The Notre-Dame Cathedral was built in the French Gothic style. It is one of the first buildings in the world to employ the use of flying buttress to support the walls. The flying buttress were actually added on when fractures began to appear on the walls as they were constructed ever higher.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
