       沒有香火,依舊虔誠。北大路上的北大教堂,仿哥德式的建築風格,加上彩繪玻璃妝點,陽光打入時光影變幻,五彩繽紛,讓教堂在2001年被行政院文化建設委員會(文化部前身)列為全國「歷史建築百景」之一呢!

       一廟一故事,每一支香火都藏著歷史的縱深。由竹塹城展開東區寺廟的巡禮,首站來到東門街上的東寧宮,由新竹東嶽廟、地藏庵、五穀先帝廟合併而來,主祀東嶽大帝及地藏王菩薩,鬼月時有「都城隍放、地藏王收」的傳統,由城隍廟開鬼門,東寧宮封鬼門,是新竹市獨有的民間習俗。轉道南門街上,一座典型祭祀武廟-關帝廟現身,穿越精雕細琢的牌樓,朱紅大門上畫的不是門神,取代的是一百零八顆的金色門釘,氣派地彰顯出宮廟格局。
       竹蓮寺是新竹市古廟之一,主祀觀音菩薩,老市民都暱稱觀音亭,寺內供奉了三尊觀音菩薩,大媽、二媽、三媽皆以泥塑金身、頂戴五佛冠坐鎮大殿,聆聽著川流不息的善男善女最誠心的祈願,讓這裡的香火永遠鼎盛。除了向靈驗的觀音媽祖祈福許願之外,也別忘了欣賞這兒屬於閩南風格的寺廟建築之美,特別的是新竹的特色-玻璃,也以手工燒製成磚片鋪設牆面,讓寺內多了份在地味。
