The Church of Our Lady is a typical European country Gothic chapel. In front of the church is a three-story square bell tower with the three-story hall carved on the front, and behind the bell tower is a rectangular church and a two-story small building.
The centuries-old Catholic Church, the interior is solemn and warm, and the garden behind is quiet and quiet. There is a sunbathing dog at the door, leaving pedestrians and cars to pass by, it is only immersed in its own world and indifferent, a feeling of high realm.
There is a famous Catholic church on Weizhou Island, but it is not this Notre Dame Church. This Notre Dame Church can also be visited in the north, but the place is much smaller.
Comparing the Catholic Church, the Church of Our Lady is much smaller. Built in 1882, it is a typical European rural Gothic chapel. In front of the church is a three-story square bell tower with the words "Notre Dame" carved on the front, and behind the bell tower is a rectangular church and a two-story small building. The French priest who built the second church more than a hundred years ago was buried in the Church of the Virgin. The Church of the Virgin is not easy to find in a village. There are not many tourists here, and it is very quiet. Some village people next to the stalls to buy things, we spent eight yuan to buy a handful of local bananas, really cheap, very delicious!
Notre Dame Hall, the first scenic spot on Weizhou Island, is also one of the most famous scenic spots on the island. It is said that the Virgin Mother's experience here can protect fishermen from returning safely when they go fishing. No wonder the temple is full of incense. The Cathedral of Notre Dame is close to the sea. The scenery is also first-class. The sky and the sea are beautiful.
The Church of Our Lady was built in 1880 by French missionaries, and it is smaller than the Shengtang Catholic Church on Weizhou Island. If you have time, it is good to see it. Especially the hundreds of years of longan trees next to the church, which are lush and full of fruit, are really rare.
This is the ideal place for wedding photos. When Catholicism was introduced into the island, there are still many Catholics on the island today. I have seen many churches in Europe, but on an underdeveloped tourist island without cars in China, a church with history and stories still feels different. This is also a famous scenic spot on Weizhou Island. Whether religious or not, it's worth going. I believe most of the couples who take wedding photos here are not religious, but they like the ritual feeling of the church.
The church is free of tickets, the surrounding scenery is beautiful, there are many things to eat, there are many kinds of sightseeing cars, ranging from 5 to 15 yuan. The walls made of various florets are also very beautiful, simple and old, full of vigor and vitality, very special. The church is very solemn and sacred. We also see people taking wedding photos here. It's a very aesthetic feeling.
