Although Buddy is small, it is very complete. Some facilities are a bit old, but basically children over 120cm tall can play there. The children have a lot of fun. The shopping prices are reasonable. Overall it is good!

Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris

学校🏫

Notre Dame de Paris: A stone epic reborn from the ashes, is it worth kneeling and looking up? Conclusion: Even if the scaffolding is not removed, it is still the soul coordinate of Paris! The fire burned through the Gothic dome, but it allowed humans to see the naked appearance of faith - Notre Dame at this moment is a living architectural anatomy lesson, more philosophical than when it was perfect. 

The hardcore truth beyond &quot;The Hunchback of Notre Dame&quot;: 
The shocking aesthetics of the scaffolding church: the giant tower crane on the south side pierces the sky like a mechanical cross, and the unfinished flying buttresses expose the steel nerves. Through the gaps in the construction fence, you can see the new spire cast from **600 tons of recycled lead blocks after the disaster - this is the Gothic soul resurrected by humans with technology in the 21st century. 
The miraculous code of the survivors: 
Bronze rooster weather vane (fallen to the ground in the fire and then recovered): It contains fragments of Paris, the crown of thorns and the remains of Saint Denis. The French regard it as the immortal totem of the ** country; 
South Rose Window (16th century): The colored glass tempered by high temperature in the flames is more colorful. When the midday sun penetrates, the rose projection like a blood diamond will appear on the ground; 
North transept stone column: The charred column is deliberately preserved and juxtaposed with the snow-white restoration stone - ** destruction and rebirth are in fierce dialogue here. 
Time capsule in the underground palace: The underground archaeological tomb (Crypte Arch&eacute;ologique) contains the ruins of the ancient Roman baths of the &Icirc;le de la Cit&eacute;. The stone swimming pool in the 4th century AD is intertwined with the foundation of the medieval Notre Dame. The two thousand years of accumulation of Paris are cut here. 
Ghost echoes on the riverside squatting on the Pont Neuf of the Seine until late at night. When the construction lights go out, the outline of the building floats in the moonlight. At this time, if you put your ear to the wall, you can hear the whimper of the wind blowing through the hollow holes of the scaffolding - that is the phantom sound of Quasimodo ringing the bell. 
Post-disaster pilgrimage survival guide: 
Touch rebirth up close: 
- Book a &quot;Chantier Tour&quot; (&euro;19) and enter the construction site wearing a helmet to watch robots carve new beams; 
- Go to the &quot;Atelier de la Reconstruction&quot; next door to assemble an oak dome model by hand and touch the charred original beam samples. 
Magic moment sniping: 
- Squat at the Pont Petit one hour before sunset, where the construction cranes and the remaining twin towers form a surreal picture in the reflection of the Seine; 
- Look up at the North Tower at the top of the hour, and when the temporary bells (newly cast in 2023) ring, the pigeons in the sky will be startled and fly back like ashes. 
Soul meal replacement plan: 
- Sainte-Chapelle (Sai
