St. Michael's Cathedral (Tianzhu Jiaotang) Review

St. Michael's Cathedral is a Qingdao landmark, with its towering 200-foot twin steeples and red-tile roof. The classic neo-Gothic structure was built by the Germans in 1934, and was badly damaged during the Cultural Revolution. The surrounding area is a great place to explore, with distinctive old German buildings contrasting with uninspired, modern Chinese block architecture. Muslim vendors hawk fragrant lamb kebabs on the cobbled streets leading to the church. Masses are still held here.
