In order to respect the locals' faith, it is recommended to rent a car by yourself, then drive outside the church, take a look outside, and enjoy the Spanish architecture of the last century. In addition to the Catholic Church of Carmel, there are many small churches on Saipan Island.

In addition to the very grand appearance, there are very gorgeous flowers outside the church, which is refreshing. It is worth noting that the main entrance of the church is not open to the outside world, tourists can only enter from the side door, and the church will also hold worship every Sunday morning. The service is not open to visitors.
The Catholic Cathedral of Mount Carmel, built by the Spaniards, was destroyed in World War II, and the current building was later rebuilt. You can enter the interior to visit, it is said to be blue, because there are too many people to visit, it has been changed to blue.
This year's flowers are not many, but they are already beautiful. I went inside, but I didn't take pictures. After all, it is more important to respect others. It is enough to leave the beauty in my heart. As soon as I enter, I have a very solemn feeling, and it makes people involuntarily quiet and see the confession room. There is really a kind of desire to go in and confess for a day and a night の impulse ~
This is the second oldest Catholic church in the world, restored in the mid-19th century, but it is still there. Pope John Paul II visited it a few years ago. One of its tasks is to convert Native Americans to Christianity, and the other is to expand the Spanish empire on the New World and establish its foothold, centered on California's oldest buildings.
It is the largest Catholic church on Saipan Island. It was destroyed in World War II and was later rebuilt. The hotel we stayed in was nearby and we could walk there. There were no locals to visit when they were worshiping. You can also eat the only KFC on the island across the road.
