It’s in Jiaoxi Township, Yilan, Taiwan (Not China). The place is called Wufengqi. And it is believed that the Blessed Mother once appeared here in the 70’s. Here are some more pictures of it:

The encased wood, which has been chopped, was part of the tree where the Blessed Mother appeared to a group of hikers during nighttime. The Church and the grotto were built after the apparition of the Blessed Virgin. The whole place used to be a dense mountain forest.

You’re going to pass through a creek on your way there. And sometimes, you can see a lot of monkeys, and all kinds of creatures. The Taiwan Blue Magpies is a very common sight:

I come here twice or thrice a week. And I always feel peaceful, rejuvenated and recharged after every visit. It’s really worth coming.
PS. You may Google it. Just type Wufengqi scenic area / church Taiwan. You may also search for: The story behind the apparition of Our Lady of Wufongci.

Here’s the panoramic view of the church’s interior (you may enlarge the photo using your fingers). I also added one more picture of the grotto:

Resurrection Cathedral in Tirana, Albania. Apparently, this is the 3rd largest Orthodox cathedral in Europe. Took these photos myself today. Beautiful.

My photos are neither digital nor easily accessible at the moment, but I’ll borrow one from the web. This is Santa Maria del Parral - the only monastery of Hieronymites (at least, the men’s branch of the Order of St. Jerome) left in the world. Based on my (faulty) memory of my visit and scouring the web, I don’t know if there are any interior photos available.

The Abbey of St. Andre in Zevenkerken, Bruges, Belgium. I’ve never been there, but it is the motherhouse of our own more modest St. Andrew’s Benedictine Abbey here in Valyermo, near Los Angeles.
