From the "Camping de Chartres" campsite, you can easily reach the city center via the tranquil path along the "L'Eure" river.

The cathedral can be seen from afar. And if I've ever said anything about the gigantic dimensions of French religious buildings, it's confirmed here again: It's more than 130 meters long and about 64 meters wide.

The best comes last. I've never seen such a magnificent cathedral. It's 100% craftsmanship! In the evening, an extensive cheese buffet. Tomorrow, another day of driving, and then back home.
