Metropolitan Cathedral @ Liverpool

Metropolitan Cathedral,

a very nice cathedral in Liverpool,

while step inside this cathedral, the feeling is so comfortable~

This building is Metropolitan Cathedral and every part of it has it own meaning.

For instance,

*The Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King is situated on the high ridge of Mount Pleasant and is visible from most parts of the city.

Circular in plan, this iconic building is set on a podium formed by a continuation of the roof of the Lutyens Crypt.

Its tapering lantern tower is surmounted by 16 pinnacles, encircled by a lattice-work crown.

The main conical roof and drum of the nave support the tower which, unusually in cathedral buildings, relates directly to the primary area of the internal space - the Sanctuary and High Altar.

The cathedral is surrounded on all sides by university buildings.

Underneath there is a circular car park.

In the garden there is a granite sculpture, Still Point by Susanna Heron. *
