Introduction

Strasbourg Cathedral stands tall and majestic in the city of Strasbourg, impressing visitors with its enormous scale. The spire of the cathedral reaches a height of 124 meters, making it an important landmark for tourists. The cathedral has been praised by many poets, especially for its Gothic nave, Renaissance astronomical clock, and intricately carved doors, which are particularly eye-catching. To reach the platform of the cathedral, one must climb 332 steps on foot. At this moment, one cannot help but recall Victor Hugo's description in "Le Rhin": "We are in a high place, where the view is no longer just a view, but a map, a map full of vitality... I tread on every little tower, admiring the beautiful scenery of France, Switzerland, and Germany bathed in sunlight."
