How many churches can you count in this photo? Salzburg is known as "the German Rome" due to the large number. I've been thinking about church buildings a lot lately. As I've been traveling around and visiting so many it's intriguing to see the detail in everything. My teacher and I were talking about how churches were how people learned before they could read and write. Nothing is without meaning. So last night as I sat in a church listening to a concert I took the time to really look at the paintings and artwork. Next time you are in a church I challenge you to do the same, not just read that plaque about when, who, what. I think you'll find that you learn a lot more.
