Photos of Liushi Church in Wenzhou, China's Jerusalem

柳市基督教堂位于温州乐清市柳市镇吕岙村，前身为温州苏慧廉传教士在柳市传教并购房建立的教堂耶稣堂，21世纪初，因老堂年久失修，且不能满足信徒人数增长的信仰活动需求，筹划建堂。新堂于2013年1月1日献堂，可容纳信徒5000人, 曾是中国最大的基督教堂。在教堂综合楼二楼展有基督教中国化字画展品，其中一幅模仿千里江山图的中国画，将耶稣基督降生、受洗、传道、升天等故事融入其中。

Liushi Church, located in Luyao Village, Liushi Town, Wenzhou City, China’s Jerusalem, was originally known as the Jesus Church, built by William Edward Soothill (Su Huilian in Chinese), a Methodist missionary to China. Soothill preached in Liushi and acquired a house to establish the church. At the start of the 21st century, the old church building was unable to meet the needs of the growing congregation for religious activities and had been in disrepair, prompting the initiative of a new building. The new church, dedicated on January 1, 2013, can hold 5,000 believers, once being the largest Christian church in China. The second floor of the building serves as a multi-purpose area showcasing exhibits, including calligraphy and paintings reflecting the sinicization of Christianity. Imitating the famous painting "A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains," a Chinese artwork depicts the key moments in the life of Jesus Christ, including His birth, baptism, preaching, and ascension.
