快速信息: Rising majestically on Mount Royal, the largest church in Canada boasts the world's largest dome after St. Peter's Basilica in Rome. A massive organ with over 7,000 pipes fills the air with awe-inspiring music during services and special events.
亮点: A striking sight is the set of 288 stairs lined with vibrant, hand-painted tiles, each depicting a biblical scene, leading pilgrims up to the basilica. The oratory's crypt holds the tomb of Saint Brother André, known for reportedly healing thousands with his faith.
