We were with our private “choose your own adventure” guide. She took our tickets, walked up to kiosk and whoosh-we were in! (And a multitude of tourists in line and on the grounds.) We normally have weaned ourselves from churches and cathedrals when traveling but heard Church of Spilled Blood was different and exceptional and it was! Time is money when traveling and this ticket saved so much time! The tickets we’re inexpensive. We also bought one for our guide.

Incredible place. Minor problem when picking up tickets.

The place is really spectacular! My only problem was when picking up tickets. I got 10:00 am before it opens so I waited at the corresponding ticket window (# 1 as mentioned in the instructions). However the tourist guides also arrived at the same window and began being rude with me and another person also waiting to pick her Get Your Guidw tickets, as they argues that window was just for them. We showed them the instructions we received but they didn’t care and continue being rude. This ended when the window opened and the delivered us our tickets. However it was not a nice way to begin the visit.

The place was very wonderful. Pendantive Dom; russian traditional roof, Rapis-rajuli mosaic, and so on. I can't explain how I was moved and its beauty.
