The St. Wangfujing

The St. Joseph's Church, Wangfujing, also named Wangfujing Church or to the locals, Dongtang (the East Church) is a historic Catholic church located in downtown Beijing, near the Wangfujing. A small church was first established in 1653 on the open grounds by the Jesuit Father Lodovico Buglio. Later several earthquakes and wars gradually destroyed the church. It was rebuilt in 1904 as Romanesque cathedral, with strong pilasters and one high and two low vau displaying a grandiose architectural style. After the restoration in 1980, the church reopened. Because of its geographic location, the Church faces west.
