Although Jiefangbei is full of high-rise buildings, there are many old houses around the church, which has the feeling of old Chongqing.

On the right hand side of the entrance, many flowers and green plants can be seen. There are Han white jade statues of Jesus, Virgin Mary and Joseph statues in the church. Playing in it, I feel that the environment is very beautiful, and from time to time some foreign tourists come to check in. Although it is close to Jiefangbei, it is because of the niche, and there are not many people who come to play. Entering a small alley in Joseph's Hall, I found that it was close to the residential building next to it. The church glass windows were gorgeous painted glass windows. And each piece of painted glass window on the pattern is not the same, it seems very interesting, painted glass window is a great harvest to visit Joseph Hall. In the sun, the light through the painted glass window, the interior of the church must be reflected in colorful. Every painted glass window seems to be telling stories. When I went there, the church door was regrettable that it was not opened and I could not enter the interior of the church to see its style.
