When visiting St. Mary's Cathedral, please consider the following guidelines:
1. Dress Appropriately: Out of respect for the sacred nature of the place, it's important to dress modestly. Avoid wearing revealing or casual clothing such as shorts, tank tops, or flip-flops.
2. Silence is Golden: Maintain a quiet atmosphere within the cathedral. Avoid loud conversations or using your phone in a way that disturbs others.
3. Follow the Schedule: Be aware of the cathedral's operating hours and any special services or events that may affect your visit.
4. Photography: Check if photography is allowed and if there are any restrictions. Some areas may be off-limits for photos, especially during services.
5. Participate Respectfully: If you are attending a service, follow the customs and practices of the congregation. If you are not a member of the faith, it's best to observe quietly.
6. Cleanliness: Keep the cathedral clean by not littering and disposing of any trash properly.
7. Guided Tours: If available, consider joining a guided tour to learn more about the history and significance of the cathedral.
8. Accessibility: Check if the cathedral is accessible for people with disabilities and if any special arrangements need to be made in advance.
9. Donations: If you wish to make a donation, there may be a designated area or box for this purpose.
10. Emergency Procedures: Familiarize yourself with the emergency exits and procedures in case of an evacuation.
Please remember that these are general guidelines and specific rules may vary. It's always a good idea to check the cathedral's official website or contact them directly for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
