On the Way of St James, perched on the "eternal hill" in Vézelay, is the majestic and enigmatic Basilica of Sainte-Marie-Madeleine, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. To really appreciate its charm, and the sacred symbolism of its Roman architecture, we recommend you meet the fascinating Christopher Kelly at the visitor center. The most magical time to visit coincides with the winter and summer solstices, when the sun filters through the building's high windows, creating a path of light on the floor that leads from the entrance to the nave all the way to the chancel.
