Serene, and nice place to have a sanctuary. The altar was so classic, typically european style. More

attended morning 7.30 AM service (if im not mistaken) with my family and still it did not fail to make me mesmerized even more with this church. one of the oldest church built in Jakarta alongside Katedral church, it is still beautiful and stand strong. the orgel still produces beautiful sound.

I love the scent of old furniture, rustic, wherever you see you will be feeling like going back few centuries prior. The accoustic sound were unbelievably amazing for 172 years-old church. The orgel were historical, pretty much magic when you hear it played. The architecture were indeed a must captured for photo-frenzy. Paladinism in each pillar projected simetrical and harmony....
