It was raining in Paris; the streets became wet and slippery, and the main cathedral of Notre-Dame loomed faintly in the distance through the veil of rain.
Director Allen said that the best time to see Notre-Dame was on a rainy day.
Because the visibility was blurred, viewing Notre-Dame now closely resembled the visual effect people had two hundred, five hundred, eight hundred years ago when they stood here, creating a sensation of traveling through time.
Link disagreed, saying it wasn't the same. Modern people, accustomed to skyscrapers, find Notre-Dame stunning but not particularly shocking or awe-inspiring.
People centuries ago, unfamiliar with the world, reverent of gods and spirits, would likely kneel or lie prostrate when they came to the cathedral of Notre-Dame, instead of standing here without restraint.
