In 1Church - the 2Play we learn in the 3Garden is the Love 4Song~
That goes out to the 4 corners of the earth~1. The New Cathedral, of St. Louis, is considered the finest example of Byzantine architecture in North America. It contains more mosiac art work than any church in the world and lays claim to the world's largest mosaic dome.
2. St. Louis Municipal Opera is the largest municipally owned theater in the world. Its stage is the world's largest open-air stage and the world's only open-air, revolving stage.
3. The Missouri Botanical Garden (Shaw's Garden) in St. Louis, established in 1859, is the oldest and one of only two such gardens in America. There are only nine such gardens in the world and few compare with Shaw's cultural, scientific and educational programs.
4. The St. Louis Symphony Orchestra is among the best in the nation and this country's second oldest, established in 1879.
