90% of Brazil's people are devout Catholics, so in this country, there will be a great miracle like the Christ the Redeemer stone statue, and the church of this country is equally impressive. The most famous of these is undoubtedly the Cathedral of Rio de Janeiro, the one of our image called the Church of the Ladder.
When you look at it from a distance, it is shocked by its unique shape and dense small window. This conical building makes it difficult to ignore its existence.
and entering the interior not only made me feel shocked, but also felt my own smallness.
When looking from the outside, it is a small window, and in the interior of the church, these small dense windows are embellished with colored glass, and some stained glass is also painted with patterns. High from top to bottom, like a colored ladder. The end of the celestial body is the translucent cross on the top.

Brazil Rio de Janeiro Ladder Church
When I finished this circle of friends, someone replied, didnt go out, really didnt know that there was such a place in the world. Thank you for bringing your world to me.
To be honest, I went to this church and was completely shocked.
This post-modern-style church is located in the heart of Rio's city. Unlike traditional European churches, this church is bold in both design and materials. The
is also called the Rio Cathedral. Because it is shaped like a ladder, it is called the Ladder Church.
It is understood that the entire church is conical and consists of regular square boxes (windows). It is a concrete structure that was started in 1964 and took 12 years to complete.
Inside the church, the colored glass makes up a huge cross, the sun slanting down from the stained glass, and the organ sounds surround the quiet church.
Here, you will feel very small, but lament the ancients.

## This road has seen many churches, but two of them are particularly impressive. One is the Sagrada Familia designed by Gaud in Spain and the other is the Ladder Church in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The Temple of the Ladder was built in 1976. The conical structure is different from the ancient and elegant style of the European church. The colorful glass windows in the four directions of the church extend from the ground to the 75-meter-high roof. Outside viewing, I feel that the building is special, and the internal feelings are sacred and solemn as the Quartet looks up to the top. The church is large and spacious, and it can accommodate 20,000 people.

Unlike the old and elegant churches in Europe, the entire church can hardly find any elements the belong to the church. It is a modern building with a reinforced concrete structure. There is a cross at the top of the tower. It is this simple cross that seems to confirm the identity of the church.
It is a high church, very creative and very Brazilian
The church is surrounded by greenery, elegant environment, although the green area is not big, but small and chic, give a beautiful feeling.
The Stairway Church has a long history and is worth seeing! !
The Ladder Cathedral is located on the Chilean Avenue in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The style of this Catholic church is completely different from the traditional European architectural styles with ancient history, which is known for its elegance and magnificence. The whole church looks like a reinforced concrete from the outside. The pyramid has a staircase-like channel design on all sides, reaching the top, just like a staircase leading to heaven. The interior style of the church is full of modernity and fashion. The dome is marked with a huge cross in the form of a glass skylight, and white glaze is used on all sides to pass through the dome from the ground. The center of the building space is a huge one tied to a golden cross. The statue of Jesus above, the whole building is open and simple. When we arrived, it happened to be here at the inauguration ceremony of the giant clergy. At the end of the ceremony, the choir girls sang hymns. The whole scene was shocking.
The place that the local one-day tour group will basically go to is located in the center of the CBD. In fact, the most beautiful angle on the exterior of the building is the reflection of the opposite glass curtain wall building. The dome inside the church is an ordinary triangle but huge color The glass looks very rare and the bright cross on the top is also extremely shocking
