Basilica of St. Mary in Minneapolis
AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
Here is a bird's eye view of a prominent church in Minneapolis, Minnesota, compliments of gopherdrone. The Basilica of St. Mary is situated just west of the city's central downtown area. In 1926, Pope Pius XI granted the church basilica status, making it the first minor basilica in the USA (there are roughly 1,750 minor basilicas in the world today; the four major basilicas are all in Rome). The Minneapolis basilica is also the site of a large two-day music festival every summer to benefit the landmark.

Beautiful building on the outskirts of downtown Minneapolis. Unfortunately, some of its aesthetic beauty is obscured by the fact that it's partially surrounded by highways. Shot with Mavic Pro 2. Music: "Where to Now, St. Peter?" by Elton John.
