St. Andrew's Church

Toronto Top 5 in Important Religious Institution

They put a sign on the street and invited people to come in. They have a house and a museum and a dinner for the homeless. There are no magnificent frescoes, but even though people pass by on their way home from the street, they know it is a church, a place to rest in a busy busy city.

I am ashamed to say that this church was the first church I photographed after I came to Toronto, but until today I didn’t know its name is St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church. At that time, I only thought it was a nice contrast with the CN Tower. It was really a good shot. point

The advantage of using Ctrip is that some unknown scenic spots can sometimes know their names. The St. Andrew Presbyterian Church was deeply attracted the first time I saw it, and the CN Tower can be photographed from the front, which is very interesting Attractions

Located on Simcoe Street in downtown Toronto, St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church is a historic Roman Revival-style Presbyterian Church. The Presbyterian Church was established in 1830 and was the first Scottish Presbyterian Church in Yorktown. The original site of the church is at the southwest corner of East Street in Adelaide. After the split of the Scottish Presbyterian Church in 1843, some of the believers who supported the free church movement left, and another faction led by St. Andrew and Rev. James Harris founded the Knox Presbyterian Church. The previous church occupies a relatively small area, so it moved to the southeast corner of King and Simcoe Streets in 1876. This westward move caused a lot of controversy and caused the division of the church. One faction continued to use the old church, known as the Old St. Andrew's School. This faction moved to a new site near Jarvis Street in 1878 and developed into the Union of St. Andrews in 1951. The other faction, which also retains its main followers, moved to the new Scotland. The Church of Rome became the Neo-Saint Andrews.

To go to St Andrew's church, just take the yellow subway line to St Andrew. It's that simple. Very tall, solemn, and magnificent. Roy Thomson Hall is across the road.
