As cathedrals still tower up around the world being noticed as one of the most largest and magnificent buildings ever made, they are respected today for their variety of architectural designs and for their purpose as well. They come in different shapes and sizes but all have the same purpose, to serve as a place to praise Jesus. Some cathedrals such as Cantbury and Durham express Gothic structures (Coles Internet).
