Beautiful Churches of the World

by Tony | 8/07/2009 in |


As the beginning of what I hope will become a series of posts, I'd like to draw your attention to a church in Brazilia, Brazil...


It's the Sanctuário Dom Bosco (appropriate since Saint John Bosco is a particular favourite of mine)...


The site obviously isn't in English, but the pictures say all you need to know.

I love the glass panes in various shades of blue: the effect is 'otherworldly' and, to my eyes, it is absolutely beautiful.
