Cathedral of St. Paul

Churches function as gathering places for those of like beliefs. The buildings are as diverse as the people they serve.

This chapter offers tours of Catholic churches rich in history and steeped in tradition—right down to the stained glass windows and pungent scent of burning incense. Marvel at the exquisitely crafted pews and confessionals, hand-painted statues and stenciled ceilings and walls. Domed naves arch to the heavens.

Most churches are open daily—usually until early evening. Use a side entrance if you find the front doors locked.
