Catholic Diocese of Chengdu, Sichuan Province

What travelers say:

The Catholic Church of Ping'an Bridge is the seat of the Catholic Diocese of Chengdu in Sichuan Province, and is called the "Holy Mother's Church of Infectious Original Sin". It was built in 1896 and lasted eight years and was completed and put into use in 1904. The church covers an area of 20,862 square meters and a construction area of 10,343 square meters. It includes the church and the Episcopal Office. The Episcopal Office has a short wall of eight characters, and the three garden gates correspond to the wall (Tuo Street was demolished), which is strictly like a mansion. The large and small churches adopt Byzantine style, and the Bishop's Office is a courtyard-style Chinese style, which has become a unique structure of the Chinese and Western walls. Looking down from the air, the large and small churches are all shaped into ten words, with a significant Catholic color. The overall layout forms a perfect "" word. The cathedral is the firm heart of the word "", and the bishop's office is the word "bundle", which originally means "soul is shocked." The Son's fear of God is manifested!
