With reserved access, they skip the general lines and enter the cathedral directly. Inside, they discover the grand central nave with its soaring ribbed vaults and restored limestone, now brighter after the fire. The tour includes the choir and side chapels, where travelers admire religious artworks, sculptures, and altars. Visitors will see the magnificent rose windows, particularly the 13th-century stained glass masterpieces that survived the fire. Guests learn about the cathedral’s spiritual and cultural role through the centuries, view relics, and experience the renewed ambiance of this world-famous monument..
