St Mary’s Cathedral

TIME : 2016/2/17 15:29:33

Myanmar's largest Catholic cathedral is an impressive red-brick building dating to 1909. The neo-gothic design is mainly down to Dutch architect Jos Cuypers, who modified a more Byzantine structure created by Henry Hoyne-Fox.

The floridly decorated interior with its red, white and green brick patterns and painted statues is quite an eye-opener.
