I would have voted for Chartres catherdral or St. Peter’s, Rome, but since they weren’t options, I abstained.

or St. Peter’s, Rome,

St. Peter, Rome

 
S. Peter’s Basilica is the greatest church in the world. The church is composed by 450 statues, 500 columns, 50 altars and it has a capacity to hold 60.000 people. Few are disappointed when they enter the sumptuously decorated basilica, whose interior contain 11 chapels, 45 altars, and precious works of art. The Michelangelo’s vast dome, affectionately called by the Romans “ il cupolone”, gives unity to the interior of the basilica.

I would have leaned toward your choices as well.

Too bad this was merely an internet / cellphone poll and as such has no intellectual / academic standing
