Putting the idol worship aside, that sure is some beautiful architecture.

You do realize whose tomb it is don't you?

And I agree, it is beautiful.

No idol worship there, just representations of people who have gone before us, whether in statue form, or the gravemarker.

These gorgeous churches were built so that people could look upon their creation as a form of veneration of the Lord. In such beautiful places, our souls and spirits are lifted from the mundane existence of everyday life to that glorious place we look forward to being after our lives here have ended.
