This is the largest on Saipan and is recognized by the Vatican Pope. Catholic Church. Now it has become a popular wedding shooting location. The exterior of the church is magnificent, and in front of the door is a statue of the Virgin cradling the baby Jesus. The garden is filled with all kinds of gorgeous flowers, which are very pleasing to the eye. The church against the blue sky is extraordinarily solemn. The interior of the church is quiet and beautifully decorated. There are statues of Jesus and various apostles on the white wall directly in front, as well as exquisite frescoes. The altar is covered with a red carpet, which adds a sense of nobility to the church. The glazed windows on the surrounding walls reflect the colorful rays of light, giving people a feeling that the heart becomes peaceful in an instant. In a corner of the church there is a statue of Jesus lying still, with a wound on his chest, and his eyes closed sadly. In addition, the church has a pipe organ and a confessional hut. The interior of the church is very deep, and there are rows of red wooden benches. The church in the sunset is very beautiful. Standing in front of the church at this time, overlooking the sea, with the oncoming sea breeze blowing, along with the sunset, this scene must be unforgettable.
