  St. Paul's Church
  This famous Church was built in the year 1847 by Bishop Wilson. The church is an example of Indo-Gothic architecture which was designed by Major W.N. Forbes. An earthquake destroyed the original 61-m high tower in 1897. It was rebuilt as a replica of the Bell Harry Tower of Canterbury Cathedral. The main hall of the church has beautifully carved wooden pews and chairs along with the stained glass window to the west. The walls are covered with intricate floral designs that captivate the beauty.It is located east of the Victoria memorial at the southern end of the Maidan. The ambience of the church is very soothing and tranquil; an ideal place for serene meditation.
