Notre Dame fire: Tourists share photos of visits to iconic Paris cathedral
As the main spire and roof on top of France’s historic Notre Dame Cathedral collapsed during an enormous fire on Monday, tourists commemorated the iconic monument by sharing photos and videos taken at the location during their visits to Paris.
France's President Emmanuel Macron vowed to rebuild the cathedral and said action to raise money will begin tomorrow."Cette cathédrale Notre-Dame, nous la rebâtirons. Tous ensemble. C’est une part de notre destin français. Je m’y engage : dès demain une souscription nationale sera lancée, et bien au-delà de nos frontières," he tweeted.
Notre Dame is one of the world’s great treasures, and we’re thinking of the people of France in your time of grief. It’s in our nature to mourn when we see history lost – but it’s also in our nature to rebuild for tomorrow, as strong as we can. pic.twitter.com/SpMEvv1BzBThe post prompted other travelers who have visited the site to share their own photos taken at the historic structure.“This was a video I took of the Notre Dame when I went to Europe my Sophmore [sic] year of High School.
