Summary
| Description |
English: The interior of the historic San Sebastian Church in Manila, Philippines, is breathtaking, showcasing a neo-Gothic architectural style and vibrant stained glass windows that create a vivid display of color when sunlight filters through. The church’s interior is adorned with high, pointed arches and intricate ironwork, which is unique as it is the only all-steel basilica in the Philippines and one of the few in the world.
The stained glass windows, crafted in delicate and intricate patterns, depict various biblical scenes and saints, casting colorful hues across the nave and filling the space with a warm, ethereal glow. The windows, imported from Germany, are framed by steel pillars that rise up to the vaulted ceiling, emphasizing the verticality and grandeur of the structure. The contrast between the colorful windows and the cool, silver steel structure gives San Sebastian Church an otherworldly and serene ambiance, making it a masterpiece of both spiritual and architectural significance. |
