4/5
The largest cathedral in Singapore, it is located in the middle of the city and is known for its cultural importance. There is a visitor's centre that provides information about the place and conducts regular tours of the cathedral, highlighting the various special features of the building. The cathedral houses a huge organ, one of the largest in Singapore and has beautiful stained glass windows. The main hall is usually open for visitors to go in and seek solace in the chapel.

    St. Andre's Church is Singapore's most famous church, located on the high ground of the city center and has a history of more than 100 years. This white Gothic church is famous for its high spires and sacred atmosphere, attracting many newcomers and tourists to visit. The exterior of St. Andre's Church uses a bright white color, which is one of its most proud features. It is said that this white paint is a practical and beautiful plaster made by grinding the shells into a ash, adding protein and sugar to a paste, and then soaking into the soft coconut shell. It is coated on the surface of the building, it is not easy to crack, and it is white and glossy. Overall, St. Andre's Church has become one of Singapore's landmarks with its unique architectural style and sacred atmosphere.

    [View] St. Andre's Church is the largest church in Singapore. It is a white Gothic church with white walls and blue sky, and it is very beautiful. [Fun] There is a three-sided stained glass window behind the screen, showing people the exquisite and gorgeousness of this church. [Cost-effective] This church is currently free to visit, and the price is super high 👍 worth a visit.

    St. Andre's Church, the first largest Anglican church in Singapore, was designed and built in 1856 by Colonel Lonard McPherson to replace the old church built in memory of Sir Stanford Raffles, and the whole building belongs to the early British Gothic architecture. This white gothic church, high spires directly into the blue sky, stands in the surrounding high-rise buildings, very noble temperament, many local Singaporean newcomers will choose to take wedding photos here. Since the landing of Governor General Sir Raffles in 1819, Singapore has taken the pace of modernization, with a rapid influx of immigrants and a variety of religious cultures. The original purpose of the church was to take care of the British diaspora, to give them a temple of worship, and later gradually transformed into a message to the local people of the gospel.
