Metz, France : A Brief Wander Downtown

The cathedral of Metz, France, in yellow sandstone, emerges from crowded downtown streets.
The above stained glass window of the Fall of Adam and Eve was designed by Marc Chagall.













Imagine... chocolates made to look like lillies of the valley.









We only spent about 2 hours here. We only live about 2 hours from here. The joke was on us. Apparently there is a huge antique market here we were looking for and we missed it. And yet... what we found was indeed something many miss. A lovely, historic downtown.
