Tourists eager as Notre Dame's reopening approaches: Video

With just 100 days remaining until the Notre Dame Cathedral reopens, tourists visiting Paris express both anticipation and impatience. 

The historic site, which has been closed for extensive restoration since the devastating 2019 fire, remains a top destination for many. 

One first-time visitor to Paris, Jake shared his excitement, saying, "We've been taking in a lot of the other sites, and we followed this a little bit and the fact that we knew it was going to be close to opening but not open yet and we're here so after seeing a lot of the other historic sites we definitely want to come back, this is like a bucket list site we would come back and definitely take in. First trip to Paris but not our last.”

Another tourist, Gaëlle who has followed the restoration closely, remarked, "I've watched TV programmes about the work being done. Seeing it now is impressive, and I plan to come back once the restoration is complete."

For some, the sight of Notre Dame is nostalgic. "I remember visiting as a teenager. Even with the damage, it's still awe-inspiring," one visitor noted.

On April 15, 2019, a devastating fire broke out beneath the eaves of Notre Dame Cathedral’s roof. The blaze quickly spread, engulfing the spire and much of the roof. The fire started around 6:30 PM local time and raged through the night, continuing until the following morning.
