In Shimoga there are many important tourist places. One of them is Sacred Heart Cathedral located few kilometers away from the ancient Shivappa Nayak Palace.
This imposing structure, built in the Roman and Gothic styles of architecture. The 18000 sq.ft church renovated and supposed to be the second largest church in India. It has beautiful stained glass panels.

Great knowing this place and it looks wonderful!
How beautiful!
Nice post. Thanks
It's quite striking. You certainly have lots of religious structures in India! Probably not a lot of atheists, right?
Lovely building!
Lovely skies and a great backdrop for a beautiful structure, Rajesh! Have a good weekend!
Very imposing
Great shot Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
That is a surprise to see -- not typical of your country -- this seems like it could be anywhere, whereas your usual cathedrals are so beautiful and unique. But I appreciate learning that it exists there.
very nice facade.
Beautiful church and very imposing.
What a beautiful church, it must be impressive inside too.
Grand facade.
This is a Christian church?

I like the way the sun kisses the church.
