Nothing will ever surpass, in my estimation, the beauty and the mystique of Chartres. It’s not so much the physical edifice, but the palpable spiritual history and milieu which engulfs it.

You put St. Sava of Belgrade here and not Alexander Nevski of Sofia??? Is this a joke? The architecture cannot even be compaired and that is to Alexandar Nevskis favour…please people!

How can “the finest cathedral on planet earth” (according to travel writer Bill Bryson) – Durham Cathedral be omitted from this list?

Or, indeed, Lincoln Cathedral?

My favorite cathedral in Europe is Cologne’s. I visited Europe for the 1st time in 2009 & when I exited the train station in Koln, there it was, a mountain of stone, beautifully illuminated. It’s immensity blows your hair back & the intricacy of it’s carving’s are mesmerizing. Nightime is a must see for this monumental sculpture! The same goes for Milan’s Duomo, it’s a tremendous example of Gothic architecture too! Barcelona’s Sagrada Familia is a wonder to behold & should be. Get there somehow & see this Modernisme work of art, (as well as Koln’s Gothic wonder)! I returned to Barcelona again in 2010 & saw the Sagrada Familia from the inside this time. Besides the Sagrada Familia there’s mucho Modernisme architecture to behold in Barcelona. Notre Dame in Paris does not disappoint either. The gargoyles are wonderful touches to this beautiful Gothic cathedral.

Chartres certainly trumps Notre Dame (as do almost all the English cathedrals, including Westminster Abbey); indeed Chartres trumps almost every building on earth. I’d have included St Paul’s and San Marco.
