Gyesan Cathedral

In winter, when you arrive at Guishan Shengtang, you must get a photo of the coffee famous. Although the beautiful cafe keeps appearing, you still have to reminisce after the epidemic. Although there is only 0 cold in the early morning, the sunshine at noon is still very good to look forward to ❤️❤️❤️

Gyesan Cathedaral is a temple that follows the Roman or Latin rite and functions as the headquarters of the Metropolitan Archdiocese of Daegu (Archidioecesis Taeguensis or 천주교 대구대교구) which was created in 1962 by bull "Fertile Evangelii semen" by the Pope John XXIII.The present building was built between 1902 and 1903 and remodeled when it was elevated to cathedral status in 1911.Pope John Paul II visited the temple in May 1984.The original structure was made of wood but it burnt down in 1899.

Guishan Catholic Church is located in Nanshandong, the predecessor building was built in the late 19th century, is one of the earliest churches in Daegu . Originally a Korean-style tile house, after being destroyed by fire, was rebuilt in 1902. The Goethe style of architecture is the Latin cross-shaped structure, made of red, black and granite. There are two clock towers on both sides of the west entrance and exit. To avoid the monotony of the building, rose-shaped windows are built in the middle of the clock tower. It is the 29th Daegu tangible cultural relics.

You can take the route of the modern cultural alley. There are many churches and the former residences of missionaries in the surrounding area. You can visit together. The appearance of the church is very beautiful, but to keep quiet, there are still people in the church.

The attractions are ordinary, but you can go to the famous and delicious strawberry cake next to it, and see the Guishan Saint Church by the way.

The Catholic Church, perhaps thinking that the time is so long, so when I went to see the heavy feeling of no history, the modern feeling is stronger. At that time, it coincided with their worship, and I also participated in it. I also attended a Christian church once before, mainly a person who told inspirational stories about himself and his family, sitting there and listening. But here is not the same, there will be a ceremony for donating money in the middle, generally a person is 1000, every row has to be handed in in turn, but I didn't know before and I didn't believe it, so I sat there blindly, and the people behind passed over to pay. But when all people handed in and sat there, it would be embarrassing, and then when I had to take turns accepting something, I took the opportunity to run out, and it was too embarrassing to be inside. But to experience it and feel a little bit of that culture. It’s okay to see the building. If you don’t want to be too involved in the ceremony, stand and take a look or sit not too conspicuous.
