It's always exciting when I receive a postcard in the mail. I want to share that joy by sending a postcard every week; sometimes to family and friends, and other times to strangers via Postcrossing.com.

St. Paul Basilika, Belgium
The sender of this card tells me that the St. Paul Basilika in Liege, Belgium, became the Cathedral after the destruction of the St. Lambertus Cathedral during the French Revolutlion in 1789.
Thanks for pointing that out Maria, I didn't even consider that myself. I would guess that it was a result of the photographer rather than any philosophy.
Hmm... I wonder why the postcard seems to focus more the lion than the cathedral. Is it probably because of the lion being symbolic to the French?
