Not my parish but one of my favorite places to go to Eucharistic Adoration and to otherwise relax & pray, St. Martin of Tours in Louisville, KY:

St Martins is stunning. The priest pictured in my sig prays the TLM there when he is able.

Here are a few more photos:

When I see a church like this one above; I would be hard pressed to go inside as nothing man could make can compare to what God has made naturally here in this place. I would be satisfied to have mass outside against a beautiful back drop such as this.
 
These churches are heavenly. I love those welcoming angels at Holy Trinity, Virginia.
 
Sacred Heart of Jesus, Baton Rouge, Louisiana

From the website: “Two formidable warrior-angels guard the sanctuary. In the dome of the apse behind them, deWit’s masterpiece of the Victorious Christ dominates the interior. Based on a mosaic in Sicily’s Monreale Cathedral, the overwhelmingly powerful Christ leaves no doubt that here is a King above all others.”

This is breath-taking.

The Abbey of Casamari (Abbazia di Casamari) is a 13th-century active Cistercian monastery southeast of Rome, in the Italian region of Lazio.

I wish to post something which I think would be a great contribution to this wonderful thread.

A Virutal tour of St. Peter’s Basilica:)

Also available: St. John Lateran, Sta. Maria Maggiore, St. Paul’s Outside-the-Walls. I highly recommend these “virtual tours.” The zoom and the detail is incredible! And in a somewhat different pictorial style you can also visit the Vatican Necropolis and tomb of St. Peter.
