East Tenne: Bishop's Square

Located near the Shrine of the Savory Salmon, Bishop's Square is a green oasis in the heart of the capital's third arrondissement. The East Tenne Bishopric Office sits in the square and is surrounded by pleasant grounds. Bishop Neilson presides over the most populous see in the nation and has his offices right in the heart of the largest concentration of religious edifices in the nation. We will see the bishop make his rounds about the Holy Quarter today.

Bishop's Square meets the city at an airy plaza running from the street to the entrance of the Bishopric Office. It's a great gathering spot and a fun place to relax and drink your catnip tea.

A hidden gem is the Arch of Schulmanicus, nestled in the green space behind the office

Bishop Neilson has a tranquil setting for his official business, quite a contrast to the bustling cityscape just beyond his front door

Baxlep Department Store is just down the street. It has a wide range of goods for just about everyone. And, it has a mitre aisle on the second floor, ensuring the steady business from the bishop.

The bishop is heading out across the Holy Quarter to visit one of his churches. Let's follow him...

Turn left onto Kettering Street and you're on your way...

Let's stop at Adamantium Cafe, conveniently located on Calico Corner, for a snackbefore we continue...

And now, a quick turn down Hancock Street and we are almost at St. Felix's.

St. Felix is one of the signature religious structures in the Holy Quarter and enjoys a fabulous waterside setting next to Seaside Park. The bishop is coming to preside over selections for the new chancel choir. Competition is going to be tough!

If you don't want to wait for the four hours of tryouts, why not slip over to Seaside Park? I am sure the food vendors will have something fun. And maybe we can get a kite! Wheeeeee!

Lookin' sharp! Though I'd love to see (the Arc De Triumph?) Incorporated into a park/urban scene as it seems to be isolated a bit in that photo.  Nonetheless, great work!

Mymyjp    Thanks! Glad you like it.

gviper    Thanks. Though it is not the Arc De Triomphe. It is the arch in Central Park, NYC. So, it is a bit smaller. It's just sort of hanging out...

Kim Sunwoo    Thanks! Glad you liked it.

Major from Bajor    Thanks, Kira! And, welcome to Schulmania. Please  visit us again!
