St Patrick's Basilica

If you've ever fantasised about being transported back to Ancient Rome, stroll through the Corinthian columns and into this gorgeous Catholic church (built in 1873). Renowned architect Francis Petre went for the full time warp with this one, right down to a coffered ceiling and cupola above the altar.
