Notre Dame Area Tourist Information & Visitor Guide
The Ile de la Cite upon which the splendid Notre Dame stands is where it all began, Paris, a primative village inhabited by a Celtic tribe known as the Parisii. How things have changed. The magnificent gothic arches and medieval buttresses of the Notre Dame now stand proud over one of the world's most noble cities. Where better to begin your exploration of Paris.
