This is a must visit in NYC. The largest cathedral in the world depending on calculations. This is the past, the present and the future in the making. You learn about what it took to make this cathedral possible, the then new technologies used to build the cathedral. How this Cathedral has evolved and where it’s heading. If you are interested in history and architecture you will enjoy a visit. We did the after hours vertical tour with The New York Adventure Club. We climbed to all the levels of the cathedral and finished on the roof with a beautiful and unique view of New York. Learn about how the dome was built in 15 weeks by the Spaniard, R Guastavino. I don’t want to give too much away. This a great date night event.
If you like touring different churches this has to be on your list to visit - what an incredible cathedral. Renovations were recently completed and the results are amazing. They do a great job of presenting the history of the church as well. The downside is you have to pay a fee for a self-guided tour.
Surreal experience, almost magical. We visited a few weeks ago, and the Divine Pathways temporary exhibition was amazing. The church was recently restored and its degree of conservation is really stunning. Friendly stuff and fair admission prices.
