There is a mirror directly opposite the entrance, and you can squat down and take a photo with the camera close to the mirror to get picture 1⃣️. 👼🏻 Stained glass: After taking the photo, you can turn around and see many stained glass windows. These are not the original ones, as the original glass was destroyed by lightning. What you see now is the restored version. 👼🏻 Pulpitum: Pictures 4⃣️ to 5⃣️, this is a common feature in European medieval cathedrals, like a giant screen separating the nave and the aisle, very magnificent. The organist can go up from here and play the organ. This is actually my first time seeing it, so I took many detailed pictures. 👼🏻 Lamps: After entering the pulpitum, you will see many lamps. This also feels like a unique feature of this church. 👼🏻 Butterflies: As you walk along, you will see blue angel wings 🪽 hanging on both sides, and the text on them made me unable to move my feet. After leaving the nave, there are aisles on both sides, with yellow wings hanging above. 👼🏻 Candles: The most healing part seems to be the candles, seeing their light makes my heart feel calm and warm. These candles are on the right side of the main entrance and the left side of the back door. 👼🏻 Music: The church also has musicians playing, and when you're tired, you can sit in the church and listen to the music, contemplating life. 📍 Events: They have cathedral music nights, coffee concerts, and organ concerts.
