THE SAINTE CHAPELLE.
The Sainte-Chapelle (French: [sɛ̃t ʃapɛl]; English: Holy Chapel) is a royal chapel in the Gothic style, within the medieval Palais de la Cité, the residence of the Kings of France until the 14th century, on the Île de la Cité in the River Seine in Paris, France.
Construction began sometime after 1238 and the chapel was consecrated on 26 April 1248.[2] The Sainte-Chapelle is considered among the highest achievements of the Rayonnant period of Gothic architecture. It was commissioned by King Louis IX of France to house his collection of Passion relics, including Christ's Crown of Thorns – one of the most important relics in medieval Christendom. This was later held in the nearby Notre-Dame Cathedral until the 2019 fire, which it survived.

Quest Journey
The Sainte-Chapelle
#wheretogo
Address: 10 Bd du Palais, 75001 Paris, France.
Getting there: You can take underground and stop at Cité station. The place is just 2 minutes’ walk away from the station.
Highlights: The Sainte-Chapelle is a fantastic example of historic and breathtaking architecture. I arrived 30 minutes early for the 9 am booking. Saw a long line up for those without advanced booking. Once you go inside, you need to be patient to get the best photo spot as everyone wants to take their pictures. Also, be prepared to have a few neck cramps from looking at all the stained glass, it was truly amazing.
Opening hours: 9 am to 5 pm daily

Sainte Chapelle is a must-see site!
A quick stop in Paris is not complete until you visit the gorgeous Sainte Chapelle. The gothic style royal chapel was the home to the Kings of France until the 14th century. Its history is as breathtaking as its aesthetics. It was easy to purchase tickets online in advance in order to skip the long lines. It’s definitely worth the trip, with lots of dining options nearby. It’s also within walking distance to Notre Dame.#Saintechapelle #paris #wanderlust
