St Mary's Cathedral under the setting sun appears so tiny when it comes into view. How could it possibly bear the spiritual soul of Australian Catholicism! The nearby Hyde Park features meticulously trimmed lawns, sculptures, and a harmonious blend of natural scenery such as green trees and blooming flowers.
