St. Mary's Cathedral 東京カテドラル聖マリア大聖堂 - Tokyo, Japan

St. Mary's Cathedral in Tokyo is STUNNING!!! It"s a must visit. Very spiritual experience. Really. 

The shape of the cathedral also reminds me of St. Mary's Cathedral in San Francisco, CA. 

"The original wooden structure, constructed in 1899 in the Gothic style, was destroyed during the air raids on Tokyo during World War II. The present church, designed by Kenzo Tange, was completed in 1964. Tange was assisted by Wilhelm Schlombs, architect to the Archdiocese of Cologne, construction engineer Yoshikatsu Tsuboi, who had worked with Tange on previous projects, and Swiss architect Max Lechner." (Wikipedia)

There's also a grotto across the parking lot from the cathedral. The grotto replicates the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes, France, which is known for an apparition of St. Virgin Mary on 25 February 1858. Many pilgrims to Lourdes follows the instruction of Our Lady of Lourdes to drink at the spring and bathe in it. Lourdes water is considered Holy Water.
