We walked into the landmark St Giles' Cathedral in Edinburgh. This church, which stands on the Royal Mile Road, is the main church in Edinburgh and the national church of Scotland. It was built in 1120 and was destroyed by fire and rebuilt in 1385. The tower is modeled on the Scottish crown, reflecting its predominance in Scotland. Once again, it feels like a very grand cathedral, not only from its exterior, but also from its interior. There were many tourists in the church, and we went around the venue for a week as usual, and we watched the painted glass windows, organ and lecture halls, as well as sculptures on the walls. Very small and exquisite sermons were covered with reliefs, so exquisite lecture halls are not seen in the church. It is said that St. Giles Cathedral has a place on the list of 100 classic churches in the world, and it feels well-deserved after the field tour. During the visit, we also took a break to read the Chinese information provided by the church. Because the information said that there was a chapel in the church that was later expanded, the staff asked about the location of the chapel. It happened that two foreign girls asked about the chapel and the staff took us into a side room with a closed door next to it. Entering this chapel built in the 20th century for the Scottish Order, it was immediately struck by the exquisiteness of the present, but the small chapel was filled with exquisite carvings and exquisite layouts. Bright colors, tall roofs, knight emblems, exquisite wood carvings, vivid expressions. The staff who took us into the chapel kept explaining to the two girls, and we could only watch his explanation with the rays of the fluorescent rod in his hand because we couldn't understand.
This place is also very worth a visit. The church is very large and spectacular, the inside is quiet, the church is very exquisite, and the carved characters are very exquisite, which makes people feel unable to help. It was about Saturday evening, just in time for the classical concert in the church, a dozen or twenty people gathered, various instruments, so that I could hear the intoxication. However, it costs £2 to take pictures in the church... (Personal beauty assessment photography public number: cdjyhz)
