The front of the church is absolutely beautiful and stunning. When we saw yh images, we thought we were going to see a stone churn like how it was built in the olden days. However, we were in for a disappointment. Only the front of the churn looks like that and it's a relatively thin wall. The rest of the hirn is just a regular hall built like nay other halls today. The vibe is pretty good but I wish we knew that it's not a stone church.
