I think that the cathedral at Chartres is one of the most incredibly beautiful buildings (churches or otherwise) in the world.

Great pictures!

Chartres Cathedral is, in the words of the British resident guide, Malcolm Miller, "the Bible in stone and glass".

His twice daily talks, deciphering the majestic stained glass windows, were different every day, and in twenty years,never repeated.

His message "The Old Testament is the New Testament veiled; the New Testament,the Old Testament unveiled" was demonstrated time and time again in his talks.
