St. John's Cathedral, Hong Kong
Built in 1847, St. John's Cathedral is an Anglican cathedral dedicated to St. John the Evangelist in Hong Kong, China.
During World War II, the Japanese occupiers turned the cathedral into a Shinto shrine, but it reverted to its original role as a cathedral after the war. Today it is the seat of the Archbishop and Primate of Hong Kong's Anglican (Episcopal) Church.
The cathedral is a "declared monument" of Hong Kong. It houses three beautiful stained glass windows, as well as a collection of British military colors, standards and guidons.
St. John's Cathedral is located in Central Hong Kong. Its weekly services are conducted mainly in English and Putonghua (Mandarin Chinese).
