    Built in 1890, typical Gothic style. The church was originally set up for religious life for the French consulate. A mountain of Notre Dame is built south of the garden and the statue of Notre Dame is placed. It is now a key cultural relics protection unit in the country.

    Notre Dame Lude, a Catholic church on the Shamian Island in Liwan District, Guangzhou, has two Catholic churches in Guangzhou, one is the Sacred Heart Cathedral on Yide Road, or called the Stone Room, and the other is the Notre Dame Lude on Shamian Island. The scale of this church is not very large. It is a mini version of Gothic architecture, but there are still a lot of finely carved interiors, which are worth a look.

    Shamian Island and the nearby West Dike Pier are a region full of European customs. This is an early concession, consulate area, and customs site, so there are a lot of European buildings built here, and now the whole area has been preserved and revitalized, and there are two famous churches. The Loud Hall and the Shamian Hall, respectively, are a very beautiful and charming island.

    We enter from Yuexiu Park Metro Station and take Line 1 to Huangsha Station to begin today's Continental Tour - Shamian. The sand is surrounded by water and connected by four bridges. There are more than 150 European-style buildings on Shamian Island. Among them, 42 are the most exotic European architecture complex in Guangzhou, which have outstanding features of new baroque, imitation Gothic, coupon gallery, neoclassical and Chinese-Western style buildings. Unfortunately, it rained heavily, which affected the photography. Shamian Island in the rain has a hazy beauty. There is also a primary school here, which is catching up with the students after school. I envy these children and see so many beautiful buildings every day. And Shamian Primary School itself is a beautiful building, considered eclectic architecture, also known as the New Baroque. It's like a big European garden full of small castles. The path between each building is surrounded by flowers, grass and trees. From time to time, there are many interesting sculptures. Although this is not a pedestrian street, only the outside streets are open to traffic. The big trees here are basically ancient banyan trees for more than a hundred years. They are lush, vigorous and shady. The air in the rain is especially fresh. No. 14 Shamian Street is Notre Dame of Luther. It was unexpectedly founded in the 16th year of Guangxu (1890). It was originally set up for the religious life of the members of the French Consulate in Guangzhou. It is now the Catholic Diocese of Guangzhou. We will have a group of foreign friends doing Mass around Easter.
