The largest Notre Dame cathedral in North America was built in 1829 and is a symbol of the city of Montreal. This neo-Gothic Roman Catholic religious temple, with its architectural style and Notre Dame cathedral in Paris, can be called Sisters, but what is truly remarkable is its magnificent interior decoration and numerous art collections. Near the church, three towering arches are on the front, each with a statue of the Virgin, the middle of which is the statue of the Virgin, surrounded by stars. The main entrance is on both sides of the 70-meter-high twin towers, and the West Tower has the oldest giant clock in North America. The whole church is magnificent and solemn. Notre Dame Cathedral in Notre Dame is charged, but the tickets are definitely worth the money. When you step into the church after buying the ticket, it is like entering a magnificent and unparalleled holy world. The cathedral is most spectacular in its magnificent dome, which almost all visitors to the church will look up to. Inside the spacious and tall prayer hall, the blue ceiling glows like an emerald with a light refracted by the light. Tens of thousands of stars in pure gold are domed, making the entire cathedral starry. After visiting the interior, after arriving at the altar, there is a corridor leading to the Sacred Heart Church behind the church. Walking down the hallway, you can enjoy some murals, sacrifices and fine silverware about religion. The Sacred Heart Church is small but also very beautiful, and it is a place where locals get married, also known as the wedding hall. The wedding was held here by the famous Canadian singer Schilling Dion, who also had beautifully carved wooden spiral staircases on both sides of the entrance to the Sacred Heart Church, and a small organ on top of the entrance. The Sacred Heart Church is covered with exquisite bronze decorations, and huge murals tell you the religious story of the world's suffering and finally reaching the kingdom of heaven. Tip:① There are many tourists visiting the church in the afternoon. It is recommended to go in the morning and stagger the peak hours of tourists; ② The ticket office is on the right side of the gate. You can buy the night light show tickets in advance. It is strongly recommended that if you go there during the day and night, you can buy the night ticket during the day, otherwise you may not be able to buy it in the long queue at night.

    When I turned around in downtown Montreal, I accidentally entered a super shocking roadside church. Later, I came back to check the information and found that it was actually a representative city church in Montreal. This church, built in 1894, also symbolizes Catholicism. The architectural shape draws on the ancient Roman church of St. Peters Basilica, and although only a quarter of the area of the reference church is occupied, it is still full of grandeur. Inside, the magnificent and exquisite design is very impressive. At the entrance is a row of bronze-plated statues of saints. Next to the church is Dorchester Square and Place du Canada. After punching in the church, you can walk here. Walking in Montreal, I feel that the churches are really everywhere, and the interior design is very distinctive. Montreal is also known as the most European city in North America. In addition to the full French-style buildings and streets, A church can be seen on almost every street corner. Make graphic once described it as "the first time in my life I have seen a brick thrown at the window of a church." This historic city is worth a walk.
