Glasgow Cathedral Photos

The construction of the Glasgow Cathedral was completed after more than 300 years. After that, it escaped the ravages of the religious revolution several times and has been preserved to this day. The churches that can be seen now are damaged to varying degrees everywhere, and the severely damaged West Tower is even more beautiful. You can clearly see the ruins of the year. The church is divided into two parts by a stone altar screen. Seven pairs of stone statues are scattered around the screen, symbolizing the "seven deadly sins" in the Catholic doctrine, which is quite interesting. According to legend, at the end of the 6th century, St. Mungo, the patron saint of Glasgow, established and named Glasgow here, and also made Glasgow Cathedral a historical witness of the city. The structure of the church is thin and towering, and the overall color is extremely dignified. In addition, it is located in the surrounding quiet green space and tombstones, which adds a sense of solemnity, as if it is telling the history of Glasgow with its own scars. The St.Mungo Museum on the side of the church is built to commemorate St.Mungo, the patron saint of Glasgow. As a Catholic saint, Mungo is said to have shown four miracles to the world: birds that can't fly, can't grow Tall trees, bells that don't ring, fish that don't swim, all mysteries will be solved in this museum. In addition to the Catholic life and art collections, the collection displays Hindu statues of Shiva, Zen Buddhism and courtyards that are worth viewing.
