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.

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
