I almost forgot if I didn't look through old photos. A cathedral in Rio de Janeiro. Shaped garden cones, pyramid-like to the sky. Cement surface, layered, like steps. The exterior of the church is rustic and there is no church ornament. Completely subverted my impression of the church. The church is 75 meters clean and the ground is 106 meters in diameter. There is no pillar. It can accommodate 20,000 people. This indoor space size is not possible for any traditional church. Entering the church, the light is dim. The eyes fit for a while, and the natural light above the head is a huge cross. The top cross extends downward, and the colored mosaic glass forms the Bible story. A wonderful innovative design, built over 12 years, completed in 1976. In addition to the main entrance, there are several doors on both sides of the church. All doors are open and no security personnel are seen. Whether the church trusts the people, the public's fear of God makes the stand redundant, and there is a souvenir shop on the side of the gate. If you are looking for someone, this is the only store
