【約克】York Minster Part I - 外部－il Giardino Romantico

There happened to be a service when I arrived, so I had to walk around and see other parts of York before wandering in. When I returned, it was ready for the public again.

當我抵達時，剛好正在有儀式正在進行中。我只好先看看約克的其他地方，再回到大教堂。當我返回後，已經開始在放遊客進去參觀了～

This is a Gothic style cathedral whose completion dates all the way back to the year 637. Throughout the centuries, it has gone through several repairs and reconstructions for varioius reasons. The first church on site was actually built from wood, and the Gothic style architecture we see today is the result of works in the 13th century.

這是一棟哥德式的大教堂。於西元637年建立完成。這幾百年來歷經過很多次的修建與重建。第一座於這個地方建置的教堂其實是棟木頭建築物。現今看到的哥德式建築其實是來自十三世紀的傑作。

The exterior is just as magnificent as its interior, as you will see in the next article.

外部跟內部都一樣很壯觀。（內部張貼於下一篇文章）

Emperor Constantine. 康斯坦丁大帝
