Europe makes America look like a new-born

Its amazing how old Europe is. Today I had the chance to go on a tour of the historic part of the city with other international and european students. We were able to go into two cathedrals, both built around the 14th century. Walking into these buildings was incredible. It is amazing how high the ceilings are and the structures seem absolutely flawless regardless of their countless detail. It is impressive to think that in the 14th century these grand cathedrals were built by men who didn't have access to the modern machinery that we do today. I've never been that fascinated by architecture but coming here you can't help but be interested!
