Christ Church in Shimla, India, is one of the most prominent landmarks of the city. Built in 1857, it is the second oldest church in North India and a splendid example of neo-Gothic architecture. The church's striking yellow facade and tall stained glass windows make it a standout feature on the Ridge, the central part of Shimla. Inside, visitors can admire the beautiful stained glass windows that represent faith, hope, charity, fortitude, patience, and humility. Christ Church also houses an old pipe organ, one of the biggest in the Indian subcontinent.
