One just has to love the narration, and the writing of the narrative, of this Piece. Absolutely no arbitrary patronization, nor snarkiness, that you will find on way too many YT Channels. 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.

same with York Minster. I must say though that my experince in St Patricks has to be up there with accoustics. We were visiting the USA for my husband's grandfather's 100th birthday and being end of January, it was very cold. We hit New York in the early evening and went to explore. 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.

Sevilles cathedral is pretty incredible, It is one of the largest churches in the world as well as the largest Gothic church. After its completion in the early 16th century, Seville Cathedral supplanted Hagia Sophia as the largest cathedral in the world, a title the Byzantine church had held for a thousand years. Christopher Columbus tomb is also there. And what about the magnificent Hagia Sophia in Istanbul?

Thank you for your comment! Seville cathedral is very impressive and is in my list for part 2.Hagia Sophia like I explain in the comments below is a mosque for almost 600 years.

​@@VGTop10s Well, the Hagia Sophia had been also a museum for almost 100 years, until it became again mosque just a few years ago. But in any case, its still a church building. Weither or not it will operate as a church or not, it was built as a church, so it could easily be listed here, in a similar way st Basils cathedral in Moscow was also included despite tha fact that it is mostly used as museum.

I've been to Chartres, St. Patricks,The Duomo, Cantebury, Reims, and Cologne. I would argue that Salisbury ought to be on this list. Possibly, York Minster should be included too. I'm of two minds about Westminster. St Marks in Venice should be on this list too. St. Peters is a must. Avignon for historical significance. Santiago de Compostela. Those are some that come to mind.

"VG", it's been awhile, since I've navigated back to this Channel of yours. Did I miss something, or might you eventually be including Anglican/Episcopal cathedrals into the mix? I can think of London's St. Paul & Westminster Abbey--and--The National Cathedral of the United States in Washington, D.C. & Grace Cathedral in San Francisco (for its pipe organ, alone). Even though, NOT, cathedrals, I imagine that there also may be some synagogues/temples in this world, that are as impressive edifices, as are cathedrals.

Kyiv Orthodox St Sophia’s Cathedral finished in 1137 is on of the oldest and beautiful churches in Europe . It strikes by the 6 metres’ image of the Virgin painted on the inner side of the dome, and lots of golden carvings inside The numerous frescos tell about the might of those times’ country It is tall with a nice ensemble of bells producing charming sounds❤️🇺🇦

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.

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

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.

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.
