St. Paul's Chapel on the hill...a closer look.



I went there for the second time and lucky for me the gate was opened although there wasn't anybody there. So I slowly drove in and parked the car. The chapel was quite big, with beautiful landscape surrounding the place to make Sunday service a pleasant one.


Two-tiered staircase.




The grotto.







I thought that the chapel was closed but when I walked to the side of it, two of its doors were opened. I was amazed of what I saw inside. The glass ornaments at the walls adds to a nice ambient light into it. The place was well laid out, the altar was small but nicely decorated.






Nicely laid out tiles and colours.


Choir section at the back. I personally think having choirs at the back projected a better sound distribution and add to the overall surround sound.

The bench are fitted with cushions which is comfortable. The cream colours fits the wooden bench nicely. I personally like the idea of cushioning especially when I'm kneeling. Getting up is a bit hard for a big guy like me if my knees are not cushioned enough. I normally use my sandals during Sunday service.

The parking space might not be enough from my opinions. I always encountered full, packed churches with cars parked right to the main road.
