聖吉爾斯大教堂

從聖吉爾斯大教堂的外觀說起，真是太莊嚴神聖了！再走進教堂裏，更令人肅然起敬，它的建築設計、雕刻藝術、歷史痕跡，無不讓人感動，值得你一遊！

聖吉爾斯大教堂（St Giles Cathedral）聳立於皇家英里大道高街段。它是愛丁堡的主教堂，也是蘇格蘭的國家教堂。皇家英里大道的地標之一。教堂的塔頂仿照蘇格蘭王冠設計，體現出它在蘇格蘭首屈一指的地位。

吸引全英國人的隆重的文化藝術節期間來到這裏，雖已關門，但分佈在教堂周圍一個一個攤點卻很熱鬧，人們圍城圈，見證各種文化藝術表演。

We walked into St. Giles Cathedral, the landmark building in Edinburgh. This church, which stands on the side of Royal Mile Avenue, is the main church in Edinburgh and the national church in Scotland. The church was originally built in 1120, then destroyed by fire and rebuilt in 1385. The top of the church is modelled on the Scottish crown, reflecting its leading position in Scotland. Walking inside the church, I feel once again that it is a very magnificent cathedral. This magnificence comes not only from its appearance, but also from its interior. The church was crowded with tourists, and we made a routine round-trip to see painted glass windows, organs and lecture stands, as well as sculptures on the walls. Very small and exquisite lecture stands are covered with reliefs. Such exquisite lecture stands are rare in churches. It is said that St. Giles Cathedral occupies a place on the list of 100 classic churches in the world, and it feels well-known after field visits. In the process of visiting the church, we also took a rest to read the Chinese materials provided by the church. Because the information said that there was a worship hall which was later expanded in the church, the staff were asked about the location of the church. As it happened, two foreign girls asked about the church, and the staff took us into a side room with the door closed. Entering this new chapel built for the Scottish Knights in the 20th century, it was immediately shocked by the exquisiteness in front of it. The small chapel was full of exquisite sculpture and beautiful layout. Bright colors, tall roofs, Knights'national emblems, exquisite wood carvings, vivid expressions. The staff who took us into this chapel kept explaining to the two girls. Because we could not understand, we could only follow the ray of the fluorescent stick in his hand to watch his explanations.

聖吉爾斯大教堂歷史悠久，始建於12世紀初，曾遭受大火燒毀並於14世紀重建。這座教堂作為愛丁堡的宗教樞紐已經有900年的時間，憑藉其著名的樹冠尖塔而聞名於世，矗立在連接愛丁堡城堡和荷里路德宮的皇家英里(Royal Mile)的中心，十分引人矚目。
