Southern California is brimming with incredible sites — and SkyRose Chapel is definitely one of them! Much more than a lovely place of worship, it’s a true architectural gem. But the chapel’s beauty doesn’t end with its interior. The grounds — and sweeping views they offer — are just as stunning as the chapel itself. Take a look:
