Amiens Cathedral, located in Amiens, France the capital of Picardy. This is the tallest complete cathedral in France. It was 1220 and was completed in 1266. Emily and I took a train from France, walked straight to the cathedral, went to one gift shop in front of the cathedral and back to Paris. It was a great one day trip. Here are some pictures of the cathedral.
