Jeremy Wayne Tate recently shared a thread on X featuring photos of religious wonders around the world that were built in the most stunning locations. But certainly don’t need to be religious to appreciate these gorgeous buildings and the scenery that surrounds them. So enjoy scrolling through, and be sure to upvote the places that you would like to visit in person! “Most of us living in the modern world feel a deep sense of disconnect with those who came before us,” he shared. “We are amazed by what our ancestors built and their conviction that creating beauty glorifies God.” We were also curious about whether or not Jeremy had ever visited any of these sites. “I have only visited a few of these locations, but would love to visit all of them one day,” he says. He also noted that he wasn’t surprised that his thread went viral. “There are dozens of huge accounts on X that mostly feature the beauty of what the old world built. The fact that these accounts receive so much engagement is evidence that the modern world is starving for beauty,” he shared. The photos on this list feature amazing locations that would make anyone’s jaw drop, regardless of whether they’re religious or not. But amazingly, these aren’t the only religious wonders of their kind in the world. Trip.com published a piece highlighting the world’s most important holy places, and there are a few that didn’t even make it onto Jeremy’s list. Another extremely important religious site is the Great Mosque of Mecca in Saudi Arabia. Five times a day, Muslims around the world pray facing the Kaaba, a cube-like structure which is in the center of this mosque. All Muslims are also expected to make a pilgrimage to Mecca at some point during their lives, which can be an incredibly meaningful experience. Follow Bored Panda on Google News!
