The scenery around us is always the easiest to miss. Hong Lou Church has passed many times since its childhood, but this year it is the first time to enter. The non-Christian visiting time written at the entrance is up to 5 p.m., but it's more than 5 p.m. when we finished our work at Shanda, we took our chances and did not expect it to be open again. Maybe that's the reason for Sunday. As soon as I entered the gate, I saw several posters on the propaganda board "Praying for the Great Mountain" and looked closely before I knew that it was the Church that had invaded the church's land in "Statement". In fact, I wanted to use the word "denounce" but after all, the words used by the church are relatively peaceful, although there are anger and grievance, but they are embodied in the doctrine of tolerance and love, so it is better to use the words "statement" which are not so strong emotional color. As for the truth of the matter, it is not good for outsiders to draw a conclusion just by saying a few words. But it does seem justified. Let's hope that the wrong party in the incident can solve this problem in good faith. Put aside this somewhat awkward time. The church itself is really beautiful. It deserves to be one of the three Catholic churches. The interior of the church is also open to non-believers. Just be careful not to wear slippers, trousers or skirts above the knees, and not to take photos or make noise inside. There is a Mass service at 6:30 p.m. on Sunday, which is sacred to believers. So after 5:30, non-believers can not sit in the front, but they can visit the area separated from the back. According to the staff, Mass is absolutely quiet within an hour, unable to speak, ordinary people may not be able to insist, so sitting in the back is convenient for everyone to enter and exit without affecting the ceremony. See the billboard also says that you can receive free extracurricular weddings, but I personally think that if you are not a believer, it is better not to hold a wedding in the church. I didn't stay much because I wasn't a Christian. But listen to the staff to explain the teachings, but also very beneficial. In fact, no matter what we believe in, as long as we can be honest and kind, care for the world and contribute to society, we should be respected.

    Jinan's Hongjialou Church can be said to be the oldest building in Jinan. The old railway station in Jinan was demolished. He became the only remaining old building with fruit. It carried the historical development of Jinan and witnessed the changes in Jinan. It is recommended that you come and see it. It is very exquisite and very magnificent. It's gonna make you full of praise.

    Jinan, as a millennium ancient city, also has many historical and cultural relics. This Hongjialou Christian cathedral has a history of 100 years, and people can feel the exotic culture here for my use.

    This church was built during Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty. When Father Gu Lijue bought land and built a church in Hongjialou Village, it had such a wonderful and magnificent building. It must be the Catholic Church for its splendid and extravagant interior. Although not many churches have been there, it is estimated that there are few such beautiful churches in China. At a glance, there must be more than four colors, and they are all bright colors. The matching is also based on the main tone and not stick to one pattern of rubbing together, how bright it comes! If heaven is so splendid, I know why doctrine can touch people's hearts.

    Can't but go! Really good! It's just more than an hour's bus ride from the railway station. It's about 40 to 50 minutes by bus from Qianfo Mountain. Prepare time, and it's easy to get stuck in traffic. If someone is giving a lecture discussing, please don't flash, don't shoot (quickly and secretly), don't talk, respect religious holy places, feel with heart, listen quietly, and leave silently.
