Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul - Philadelphia, Fine Art Photograph
******************************

The Cathedral Basilica of Saint Peters and Paul in downtown Philadelphia is an architectural marvel. Located at 18th street and Benjamin Franklin Parkway this lovely monument is a short walk from many of the hotels in downtown. The architecture is primarily Roman-Corinthian and the basilica has been modeled after there Lombard Church of Saint Charles (San Carlo al Corso). A hit with the history buffs, the construction of the basilica was initiated by Bishop Francis Patrick Kenrick in 1846 and completed in 1864.

If you are ever in Philly, this will be a great attraction to explore, rain or shine!
