Depends on what you mean by Catholic. If you want to go see something as a tourist, then as ICN points out you can just google the location of one. But, if you are interested in worship, then you should be aware that although the Church will be nominally catholic, it isn't in communion with the holy sea. Instead its under the direction of the Chinese Catholic Patriotic Assoscaition, which itself is under the direction of the Religious Affairs Bureau So, if its important for you to use it for confession or to receive communion then it may not be what you want.

Ben_Carter:

The Vatican recognises the sacraments offered by the Catholic church in China. Communion and confessions count just fine.

The Vatican's official position is that they are illegitimate but valid.

The Chinese Catholic church also teaches that abortion is okay. Very much anti-Catholic. Like Matt said it's not really true Catholic church, it's just another part of the Chinese government.

Q: job oppurtunities for non-native ESL teachers

A: 1. Apply at FindJobz, top L corner of this screen! 2. Have a look

A:1. Apply at FindJobz, top L corner of this screen! 2. Have a look over the Internet with "Requirements for an English teaching job in China" in search for more details.You could also look at the guidance titled "How to use an Internet, search engines in particular ..." for more in-dept knowledge. 3. As you can see from no. 2,, main requirement for an ET job in China is holding of a native English passport (UK, Ireland, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and S. Africa), no different than anywhere else in the world. 4. Non-English native passport holders qualify for an ET job in China only if they hold BA degree completed in the native English country.However, most recruiters and hiring managers in China aren't aware of that exemption, so if you hold a degree from one or two native English countries, I suggest you include that into Introduction letter. Good lucky! P.S.Application for the NASA's Moon-to-Mars Program at the Cape Canaveral is less stringent than applying for an ET job as a non-native Englisher ...That of course, is an opinion of a non-English native teacher with lengthy English teaching experience in several different countries. -- icnif77
