Serene Moments: A Stroll to St. Francis Xavier Chapel

Stepping into St. Francis Xavier Chapel, located on the slopes of Mong Ha Hill, feels like entering a serene sanctuary. Built in the 19th century, this Catholic chapel exudes understated elegance with its simple exterior and graceful curves, showcasing the profound beauty of simplicity. Pushing open the heavy wooden doors reveals a solemn space within. The interior is softly lit, with sunlight streaming through stained glass windows, casting dappled shadows that infuse the air with a sacred and tranquil atmosphere. The intricately carved pulpit and the serene glow of the statues on the altar invite a sense of peace and reflection. Exiting the chapel and looking back at this historic building, it stands quietly through the ages, guarding faith and hearts. The surrounding quaint streets complement the chapel, creating a corner where time seems to stand still. Here, the echoes of history and inner peace merge, leaving an unforgettable impression.
