Sint Jan Basilica Minor anno 1924
Netherlands, Laren, Febr. 2007

My entry for Architecture Friday, March 1, 2007
Only 12 churches in the Netherlands are allowed to carry the name "Basilica Minor". Although this church is not an old one, it is quite famous. Its architect was Wolter te Riele. The two towers are 50 m high and are a landmark in Laren and its surroundings (Laren is a village 30 km east of Amsterdam).

	Mar 02 2007 14:16 GMT LizSA I love anything with two towers.....great architecture.... it would sureley be much different in the summer months....with those huge trees..!!.
	Mar 02 2007 15:03 GMT senna3 Liz, in summer time it is difficult to take a picture unless you have a wide angle lens, so that you take it standing right in front of the church. But then you have the problem of the cars that are also parked in front of the church. I hate cars in front of a beautiful building! In this picture, these cars are hidden behind the green bushes, but at the left they are still visible.
	Mar 02 2007 16:57 GMT jamby PRO i hate cold and dark days but then again there's this charm of the winter season that i learned to adopt and love...while biking everyday going to work..i always look up to the branches and structure of the empty trees and its very fine twigs...anyways...what i am saying is..i love the image of these three trees in front of the chruch just the way they are....beautiful lightings on this capture by the way...great entry my friend!!
	Mar 02 2007 18:19 GMT senna3 We seem to have two things in common: 1. Being born in Indonesia, I was conditioned for the sun, so I too hate the cold dark days, 2. I like to bike very much! The Netherlands are such a bicycle-friendly country, that it offers some compensation for its wet and chilly climate!
	Mar 02 2007 18:40 GMT AlisonBC Lovely entry, and great information.
	Mar 02 2007 19:51 GMT Mafernandes great pic
	Mar 02 2007 20:58 GMT Pam It's really quite a young building for a Church, but it has such character
	Mar 03 2007 07:29 GMT senna3 Thank you Alison.
	Mar 03 2007 07:45 GMT senna3 Thank you Mafernandes.
	Mar 03 2007 07:57 GMT senna3 I fully agree Pam. I often pass this church on bike tours and I am always impressed by its "personality"!
	Mar 03 2007 09:33 GMT Detalhes very beautiful

	Dec 31 2007 12:38 GMT doramandragora Thanks, Peter, for directing me here. From this angle the Basilica looks even more impressive.. especially with the two trees in front of the two towers.
