    It is said to date back to the famous William Conquest period, built in memory of San Diego, built over hundreds of years, and has been nearly a thousand years. It is the oldest religious building in the whole of Scotland. It is also a must-see for tourism.

    It looks good when the sun is out, it is very suitable for taking pictures. Last time I went to the church interior to do an activity, I forgot that the church glass is very distinctive. Try not to step on other people's cemeteries. Hahahaha, look outside. 😂

    It is also easy to see the tall Glasgow Cathedral in the distance on the streets of the city, surrounded by statues of religious figures, behind them are hillside green spaces, and themselves bathed under the blue sky and white clouds rising the next day. The only oldest building in Glasgow, built in the sixth century, is said to have been completed after more than 300 years, and it takes a long time to build it. After that, the cathedral has survived the destruction of the religious revolution several times and has been fortunate to be preserved to this day, of course, people can still see the church everywhere with different degrees of damage, and even some places can clearly see the ruins of the year. We walked into this free and open cathedral and many tourists have visited it. It is also one of the must-see attractions for people visiting Glasgow. The interior of the cathedral is very grand and tall, with arched walls of ancient columns extending the roof of the church to a high altitude, and wooden ceilings are set with a variety of national emblems. The walls of the church are surrounded by tombstones and carvings, and many religious tourists are watching these tombstones carefully, and we can only look at a macro scene. The most different from the general cathedral is that the glass windows of this church seem relatively flat. In the center of the church, the cross section is divided into two parts by a stone altar fence, and the fence is scattered with seven pairs of stone statues, which are said to symbolize the "seven sins" in Catholic doctrine. We began to compare the text introduction, looking for a long time did not understand, and then asked the staff to get guidance, it can be seen a little famous. Inside the church there is a large basement, which also has arched walls, a sacred tombstone, surrounded by red ropes. The tombstone belongs to St. Mungo, the patron saint of Glasgow, and it is said that the saint founded and named Glasgow in the late 6th century. This also makes Glasgow Cathedral a historical witness to the city. On the murals behind the tombstones and on the church's carpets, guides generally introduce visitors to the four wonders unique to the church: Birds that don't fly, trees that don't grow tall, bells that don't ring and fish that don't swim. Such a connotative cathedral is so old and seems rare.

    The Glasgow Cathedral is a masterpiece of Scottish Gothic architecture and the only church in the native medieval Reformation that has not been destroyed.

    Built in the 12th century, it is the only medieval Scottish cathedral to escape the Reformation; it is also a memorial to St. Mungo, the patron saint of Glasgow.
