He speaks in the manner of a beloved teacher, or a beloved clergyman, to us. Admittedly, not everyone's favourite can be included in Pieces such as this, but what they are getting at, is that Cathedrals can come in many highly UNIQUE FLAVOURS, that one can't decide which tastes the best. And interiors so enormous with some of these, that could accommodate several Giant Sequoia trees (crowns, trunks, roots and all), perhaps even San Francisco's Episcopal/Anglican Grace Cathedral.

After an hour or so our Aussie bodies couldn't take the cold any longer so we ducked into St Patricks hoping to warm up, only to discover an organ recital going on. It was magical! We stayed until the end.

The cathedral in Puebla, Mexico, is one of my most favorite. Exterior, it is all grey and black volcanic stone, and you would never expect the majesty and richness of the interior. The high altar is circular and surrounded by other altars. The richness of the amount of gold used is striking. It is adorned by wonderful oil paintings depicting the friars who worked there. The chandeliers are fantastic. Some of the religious articles, which I did not see, are apparently magnificent. There is a monstrance used at Benediction that is made of gold and inlaid with hundreds of emeralds .I never expected anything like this before I walked in but will never forget it. One of the richest buildings in the world.

During medieval times, all the materials needed to build a cathedaral could travel "tax free" across the borders of regional kingdoms. To identify those transports exeempt from duties, the latin writing "Ad Usum Fabricae" (= to be used by the construction site {of the cathedral}), often simplified in the initials "AUF", was written on the carriages. The construction used to go on for centuries, and for centuries the ordinary people (who did not understand latin) associated the meaningless (for them) expression AUF with "this does not pay". In Italy people started to pronunciate AUF with the simpler "a ufo". And then they used to say, for example, "do something a ufo" = do something without paying. Still today in italian we use to say "a ufo" when something that is supposed to cost is in fact, for some reason, free.

Thanks for the clear English pronunciation! I visited six of these, four to go. More of my favourites are Burgos, Córdoba (more a mosque) and Amiens.

The correct meaning of ancient, in archaeological vernacular, usually before writing began, before 3500 BCE. But, these cathedrals are artistically splendid.

Strangely, Hagia Sophia was missed. It is definitely one of the most influential and historically important Christan chirches in the world.

St. Patrick Cathedral's stained glass is Blenko Glass, as is the Washington Cathedral Washington D.C. Yale's Library & the Chapel at the Air Force Chapel is also Blenko. They provided a lot of glass to Europe's cathedrals after WWII.

The most impressive cathedral is the Milan (Italy) cathedral. I’m very hard to impress but that is the most amazing piece of architecture in the world.

I was surprised not to see Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris among the impressive churches in the world.

One of the lesser known cathedrals in the UK is Southwell Minister in Nottinghamshire. The main body of the Minster is Norman, with several latter additions. Its simplistic architecture gives it its grandure. Its location is a small town in Nottinghamshire, ment it mussed the ravages of the reformation.

Our Catholic Cathedral-Basilica of the Immaculate Conception in Denver, Colorado is a very much like a smaller version of Saint Patrick's in NYC. Striking architecture on a mostly commercial street.

I have seen five of the ten! But there are many other beautiful ones not listed, such as Saint Chappelle in Paris, which is one of my favorites.
