2027 review"Galway Church is the most important and largest church in the ancient city of Gaowei. The church is a typical Gothic building, the area is very large, the decoration inside is not very luxurious, but it looks solemn. A large mass is held every weekend, and many believers are here to read the Bible and pray, which is worth a visit."Galway13.6 km from downtownChurches and CathedralsHighlights: Galway Cathedral, whose full name is "Cathedral of Our Lady of Heaven and St Nicholas", is a Catholic church and an influential building in Galway.Show Less - 4.34.6/515 reviewsFree

He was originally part of the ancient city wall, but now only such a city gate remains. Now on the edge of the Spanish arch is the Gaowei History Museum, which is worth the money to visit."Galway14 km from downtownHistorical SitesHighlights: The Spanish Arch is the only remaining part of Galway's old city walls, on the east bank of the River Corrib. It is part of the ancient city walls of Gowell and one of the few remaining sections of the ancient city walls of Gowell, now part of the Galway City Museum. This section of the city wall was built at the end of the 16th century and has a strong sense of history.Show Less
