This is a very big and beautiful church Saint Mary's Cathedral has always been a beautiful church, The Restoration of the old part of The Church has gone very well. I love to walk in the gardens the waterfall at the entrance of the church is also a newly added feature,is beautiful. Awesome architecture. Great mix between the historical and modern and a very friendly Priest. It is so lovely just to be in the cathedral.
