The hallowed halls of the St. Andrew’s Cathedral resonate with a sense of quiet and peace that can be hard to find in our ever-busy lives. Singapore’s largest cathedral offers a peek into the architecture and heritage of the colonial era. An interesting tidbit about this holy church is that it was used as a make-shift hospital during World War II.
The towering white cathedrals allows everyone to enter its chambers and take a trip through memory lane, in the form of memorial and decorations. Do not miss the stained glass windows in the apse, dedicated to the founders and architects of modern Singapore.
