Chartres Cathedral

"Chartres Cathedral"in France. This is temple,and one of the world cultural heritage. This is called to be the most eminent temple in the Gothic.
West: it means to termination and there are stained glass which represent "doom".
North: it means past and the Prophets of Old Testament is represented.
South: it means present and Christ depiccted central and there are New Testament around that.
Staind glass helped the people to know the tale of Bible, when there are many people who could not read well.
