The Sacrament of the Last supper at the National Museum did it for me.

But my most interesting reaction was at the Notre Dame in Paris. I had just past the statue of Joan of Arc. I noticed all of this colored light on me. I looked up and saw the Rose Window of Notre Dame and was literally moved to tears. I just stood there, transfixed, tears streaming down my face. I could not explain it.

I later told my French host of the experience, telling her I felt as if I were in the soul of Paris or France. She smiled this cat like smile and said, "But you were".
