The foremost church in the Far East has opened, right in the magic city

It took nearly 5 years to renovate, and it finally opened this year. Only when you go there will you understand why it is known as one of the three major churches in the world along with Notre Dame de Paris and Cologne Cathedral, the foremost in the Far East: 1, The floor tiles are exactly the same as those in Notre Dame de Paris. After the fire in Notre Dame de Paris, this is the only place in the world where you can see the original version of the church. 2, The entire church was built without a single nail, no beams, no steel bars, all made of glutinous rice and marble. The cost at that time was 3 million Yuan Datou. 3, What you see on the 2nd floor is not an attic, but a cavity. It is damp-proof, dust-proof and can also serve as a natural sound system. The sound effect is amazing when the old staff sing 'Forever Sun'.
