Catedral Metropoliana / Rio de Janeiro Cathedral

Officially Catedral Metropolitana de São Sebastião (English Translation: Metropolitan Cathedral of Saint Sebastian), this church has a capacity for 20,000 people and is shaped like a volcano.  Another masterpiece of Brazilian architecture that is equally (if not more) stunning on the inside with four 180 foot tall stained glass windows.  We even took the opportunity to have our picture taken with the cathedral's image reflected from the glass building across the street.
