Here’s a link to the Guangzhou Cathedral They have Mass in English. Like the Beijing Cathedral, it’s crowded with no AC. They’ve mounted several fans to the columns and their noise is a huge hearing impediment. The sound system and the acoustics of the church don’t enhance the situation. Your neighbor in the pew always tries to convince you he can sing louder than anyone in the congregation. The late comer seems to believe that despite you being elbow to elbow in the pew, there’s always room for one more. I’ve taken the taxi but defaulted to the subway once I learned the location. I took several photos on the outside

and one on the inside before I was told I couldn’t take inside photos. Ma advised me that I’d do better watching Mass on TV so I gave up the journey to the Cathedral.

Beijing Anyone?
