Sacred Heart Cathedral of Guangzhou.

The Sacred Heart Cathedral of Guangzhou, also known as the Stone House Sacred Heart Cathedral, is a famous Catholic church located in Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, China. Built in 1888, it is renowned for its magnificent Gothic architectural style and all-stone structure. The cathedral's twin spires and towering pointed stone tower are its prominent features. The interior is elegantly decorated, with a spacious main hall and exquisite stained glass windows. As one of Guangzhou's iconic landmarks, it serves not only as a religious center but also as a major tourist attraction, drawing numerous believers and visitors. Personally, I find it quite solemn and dignified. It's a good place for a casual stroll and photo ops. It was a satisfying first-time visit to a church, with a unique architectural novelty. 🚇 Transportation: Line 6, Yide Lu Station, Exit B / Line 2 & 6, Haizhu Square Station, Exit B2 💰 Ticket: Free (no reservation required) Opening Hours of Sacred Heart Cathedral 🕒 Opening Hours during National Day Holiday: ❌9.30: Closed all day ✅10.1: Open only in the afternoon ✅10.2-10.4: Open both morning and afternoon ✅10.5: Open only in the morning ❌10.6-10.7: Closed all day Regular Opening Hours: ✅Tuesday to Friday 9:00-11:00 15:00-17:00 (Sanctuary and Iron Gate) ✅Saturday 9:00-14:30 (Sanctuary) ✅9:00-17:00 (Iron Gate) ✅Sunday (Lord's Day) 13:00-14:30 (Sanctuary) ❌Note: Closed on the third Sunday of each month 7:00-17:00 (Iron Gate) ❌Monday (Closed to the public) ⚠️ Dress Code: No revealing clothing, no tank tops, no short skirts or shorts, hats and sunglasses must be removed, no flash photography, no selfie sticks or tripods ⚠️ Respect religious beliefs
