Discover Chartres
Historic urban travel destination in France
Many people know Chartres as a perfect weekend break or a day trip from Paris, France.
They are right... it takes only about an hour trip by car or by train from Paris! You go in the morning, visit the cathedral then come back to the capital at the end of the day.

What other have to say about DC website
Bonsoir, I hope my comments do not appear silly but I
dreamt about walking a Labyrinth, I had had an operation on Friday, they
told me the bleeding will last a month, it has stopped.
I was ordering a
book on Amazon and came across the meaning of Labyrinths and was led to
your website. I would
love to visit the Cathedral, I am also a photographer so hopefully would
capture the beautiful architecture.
Kind regards, Karen - UK
