Church part 2

The most interesting thing about the downtown church was how it seemed to be simultaneously in three different time periods. It is done in an Egyptian style which gives it a 1000s year old feel, but at the time it looks like a church built in the mid-1800s. The floor layout, sanctuary design and relation to the street all speak of the 19th century churches we are familiar with. On top of these two periods, the church is also situated in the present day. The decoration of the church was fascinating because we are so used to churches influenced by ancient Rome. The colors seemed unusual to me, especially as they were presented in the stained glass windows.
