Why to visit St. Andrew’S Church
St. Andrew's Church dates back to the colonial era and retains its old-world charm, bringing in a steady stream of visitors year-round. The structure was completed on November 30, 1843, and is named after a Scottish patron saint. After a devastating earthquake hit the area in 1873, the building underwent extensive renovations. Since then, it's become a popular tourist attraction. As a result of its location in the mall district, this historic Anglican church attracts both residents and tourists. If you're planning on visiting the Church, it's best to wear something modest because the local Scots are quite protective of the Church's sacred space.
Special Tip
During the months of March and November, Sunday morning services begin at 9 a.m.; during the months of December and February, the time changes to 9:30 a.m.
