Lovely Catholic church but not as humongous as portrayed by reviews here. Well hidden among buildings, so it may not be easily seen (my cab driver dropped me off at the back part and pointed for me to take the stairs, so not much foot or vehicle traffic). Sunday mass in English is at 9:30 am. They have the church materials available by the entrance points (missal/readings, song book, etc), with staff/volunteers stationed there for queries or help in getting the right materials. The altar is at the center, so you can sit with the front/back/side of the priest as your view. The pews are too narrow. The choir section is with the church goers. I had two fascinating discoveries: 1) they have altar girls and female lay ministers; and 2) after you receive the body of Christ, you may dip it in the wine held by a minister a few steps from the priest (I didn't - hygiene and health concern).

The astronomical church located in the city center is truly a marvel. Its stunning architecture and intricate design are a testament to the creativity and talent of the builders. The towering spires reach towards the sky, symbolizing man's unending quest for knowledge and understanding of the universe. The stained glass windows are a work of art, depicting scenes from the cosmos and the stars above. The interior of the church is equally magnificent, with its soaring ceilings and ornate details. The church is a place of wonder and inspiration, offering a peaceful respite from the hustle and bustle of the city. It is a place where one can reflect on the majesty of creation and the mysteries of the universe. The astronomical church is truly a gem of the city and a treasure to all who visit.

This church is truly remarkable. From the moment you step inside, you are greeted by a sense of serenity and awe-inspiring beauty. The grand architecture, with its towering spires and intricate stained glass windows, creates a breathtaking atmosphere. The attention to detail is evident in every corner. The soft, cascading light that filters through the windows creates a tranquil ambiance, inviting contemplation and reflection. The church's rich history and spiritual significance are palpable, adding a profound sense of reverence to the experience. It is a place where one can seek solace, find inspiration, and connect with something greater than oneself. This church is a true testament to the power of faith and a testament to the beauty of human craftsmanship.

Absolutely beautiful Cathedral with relics from the great saints like Padre Pio! Attached pictures in the review are the mass timings taken recently. It’s located on top of a hill, when you’re walking from Central MTR, you’ll walk past Lan Kwai Fong, reach the short tunnel and walk up the steps to the beautiful church. Hidden gem in the city.

A historical Catholic church in Central District where many senior government officers and middle class or even tycoons used to go. Periodical maintenance was carried out so that the outlook and the interior were still very shiny. A great place for wedding ceremony. Parking lots were only for registered users.

Beautiful and sacred Catholic cathedral of Hong Kong. Attended Sunday Mass there. Liturgy was solemn, choir sang beautifully and the congregation was participating well in the worship. Communion was in two species. Air conditioning is so good especially in this tropical city.
