Frommer's Review

Located in the southern part of the old Chinese city, this was the first large cathedral in Shanghai, built in 1853 in the early Spanish baroque style. It's a fine-looking building with arched roofs, thick pillars, and lotus-designed bas-reliefs inside. Chinese couplets are inscribed on both inside and outside walls, and four of the church bells are said to be original.
