The High-Heel Wedding Church (Chinese: 高跟鞋教堂; pinyin: Gāogēnxié Jiàotáng) is a high-heel-shaped building in Budai Township, Chiayi County, Taiwan. It is managed by Southwest Coast National Scenic Area Administration.[3][4]

History edit

The construction was completed on 10 January 2016 and was opened for trial in February 2016.[citation needed] It was officially opened on 23 July 2016.[5] Later in the same year, the church received the Guinness World Records certification as the world's largest high-heel shoe-shaped structure.[6] In 2017, the Tourism Bureau planned to upgrade the facilities around the church and launch a series of promotions for the church.[7]

Architecture edit

The building is shaped like a high-heel shoe 17.76 meters in height, 11.91 meters in width, and 25.16 meters in length. It is composed of over 300 pieces of blue-tinted glass.[8]

Events edit

The place is famous for its use as a wedding venue.[6] Though colloquially referred to as a 'church', the building is not consecrated and has no religious function.[3]
