Sainte Chapelle

It really is an extraordinary building (not bad for 800 years old).

I was hoping for 350

but 322 km/h will do. TGV is comfy, quiet and a nice way to travel.

450 km in 2:20 hours. A Metro and rail system with 2 minutes between services. Unified ticketing. Maybe a thousand or so metropolitan metro and RER stations. It all just works. And Sydney can’t do a 1/5 of it. Thank you Australian Labor Party (NSW Branch).
