14/24.- Nassau, Cathedral

Nassau has the highest concentration of churches I have ever seen. The population is very religious, and religion seems to pervade much of their life and language. The local radio and television broadcasts religious programmes round the clock, and every denomination or sub- or sub-sub-denomination seems to be represented and active. Methodism is particularly well represented, and has been around for centuries. On the outskirts of town, where Nassau keeps expanding, the first building to go up on a block is the church. This picture shows the inside of the Anglican cathedral.
