It's amazing place in Karachi I love this church and I want to visit it again and again.
Beautiful building, but these people are not welcoming. This is closed community that is against the main idea of Christianity, which is to spread the faith among others. Very disappointing.
Ma 3 bar ja chuka hu..muslims ko ander hi nahi janay detay...there is guy hellwin bohot batmeez admi ha
Probably, its okay but visitors are not allowed specially Muslim, that's why can not say any more !
Beautiful structure located near Empress market, Saddar and visible from almost 1km away.
The church was completed in 1881, and can accommodate 1,500 worshipers. At the front of the cathedral is "Monuments to Crist the King", built between 1926 and 1931 to commemorate the Jesuit mission in Sindh. Nowadays Pakistani government is also participating and paying its part in rehabilitation and maintenance of this historical asset.

A few days ago I visited this beautiful and historical place with my Couchsurfing friends. We were doing a city walk around the old town, Saddar.
Soon we ended up in front of the picturesque St. Patrick Cathedral, which also houses missionary schools including St. Joseph College.
The church was not open for general visitors due to the Sunday service. The caretaker offered us to give a visit on any other working day. Still it was good enough for a group photograph from the outside.
