Best Answer

Notre Dame de Paris is considered by many people to be one of the finest examples of French Gothic architecture in the world. It also has many beautiful features, not the least of which are the famous stained-glass "rose windows," which were built in the 13th century. According to Wikipedia, The North and West windows still contain much original glass. I recommend visiting the Wikipedia cite for more architectural and historical information that would be of interest to a visitor and provides ample reason to go there should you have the opportunity to visit Paris.

Reason Notre Dame Cathedral Is FamousBig, beautiful, center of Paris and took over 100 years to complete

Also, one of the many reasons this cathedral is so important is because it was the first cathedral built with flying buttresses. Flying buttresses are what help the cathedral to be so tall.
