Spiritual presence, peaceful feeling
Iglesia de Santa María的点评
点评:We went to Mahon on the local bus and this was on our "to do" list. It's easy to find, being a landmark building and well signposted. There IS an entrance charge, but it's well worth it. As soon as we walked in we felt "it" "It" being, the "wow factor" the spiritual presence and the peace. You can light a "real" candle here too :) The organ is the biggest on the island - we didn't hear it being played, but apparently its magnificent when it is. The altar area and the organ are really something - see photos. You need to be there though, to appreciate the splendour in full and to experience the peaceful ambience. As you exit back into the hustle and bustle of Mahon, the comparison to the serenity inside is most striking. Information, free, to take away in several languages. Postcards and other small items available for purchase.

Tip - Go to the front. on the left side behind the doorway was a poster showing all the Popes. On the right side however, behind another doorway is another small chapel with a mural of the Last Supper - well worth seeing and presumably often missed.
翻译:我们乘坐当地巴士前往马洪,这是我们“要做的事情”清单上的一项。它很容易找到,是一座地标建筑,路标清晰。需要支付入场费,但非常值得。我们一走进去就感受到了“它”的存在,感受到了“令人惊叹的因素”——精神的存在和平静。您也可以在这里点燃“真正的”蜡烛 :) 管风琴是岛上最大的管风琴——我们没有听到它被演奏,但显然当它被演奏时,它非常壮观。祭坛区和管风琴真的很棒——看照片。不过,您需要亲临现场,才能充分欣赏它的辉煌,体验到宁静的氛围。当您回到马洪的喧嚣中时,与里面的宁静形成鲜明对比。信息是免费的,可以用多种语言带走。明信片和其他小物品可供购买。

提示 - 走到前面。门口左侧有一张海报,上面展示了所有的教皇。然而,在右侧,另一个门后面是另一个小教堂,里面有一幅《最后的晚餐》的壁画——非常值得一看,但可能经常被错过。
