Sacred Heart Cathedral – A Gothic Masterpiece

#chinatrip The Sacred Heart Cathedral, also known as the Stone House, is a stunning Gothic-style church in the heart of Guangzhou. Built in the 19th century by French missionaries, it is one of the largest cathedrals in China and one of the few built entirely of granite.

Its serene atmosphere, combined with its architectural grandeur, offers a peaceful retreat in the midst of the bustling city. Whether you’re religious or simply an admirer of historical architecture, the Sacred Heart Cathedral is a fascinating place to visit.
