Ocean View Park in Budai, Taiwan is now home for a new church, that looks like an high heel pump shoe. The church is made of blue tinted glass and is measuring 55 feet tall and 36 feet wide. According to the Southwest Coast National Scenic Area spokesman, the idea behind an unusual design is to attract female worshipers. The church will have over a hundred female-oriented features, including “chairs for lovers, maple leaves, cookies and cakes.”
Construction of the church took only two month, but it is not open to the public yet. Nevertheless, it is already gaining popularity among locals and tourists. The church is expected to be open before Chinese new year, which this year falls on February 8th.
