A Serene Sanctuary: The Spiritual Baptism at Myeongdong Cathedral

Stepping into Myeongdong Cathedral in Seoul feels like entering a sacred space isolated from the bustling world. This cathedral is tranquil and solemn, with white walls complementing the arched ceilings, and every detail exudes the power of history and faith. Standing in the center of the cathedral, my gaze is irresistibly drawn to the solemn altar, where golden light filters through stained glass, casting a sacred dance of light and shadow on the floor. I walked softly through the interior of the cathedral, savoring every piece of art and history. The murals on the walls and the holy sculptures all tell the long story of this cathedral. Occasionally, a devotee kneels before the altar in quiet prayer, and the atmosphere of devotion makes the entire space feel even more sacred and peaceful. Myeongdong Cathedral is not only a religious center in Seoul but also a haven for the soul. Away from the city's hustle and bustle, it offers me a moment of tranquility and reflection. In this sacred and serene place, I found my own moment of peace.
