Basilica of Saint Lawrence
Pause here. To our left is the impressive Basilica of St. Lawrence. This basilica owes its existence to Spanish architect Rafael Guastavino. In the early 1890s, Guastavino was commissioned to work on a vaulted ceiling for the Biltmore house in Asheville. But while here, he decided he loved the place too much to leave! He bought property and set down roots. Note:- This tour is 1.8 miles long and covers all its essentials in 2-3 hours. Buy once, use for one year! Ideal for extended visits and return trips over the next 12 months.

This was very informative and a concise history that I enjoyed. The weather was very cold and windy which may have have been a factor in that the app could not keep up with me. I had to manually tap almost each site.

Melissa, I'm thrilled you enjoyed the informative content of the Highlights of the Asheville Self-Guided Walking Audio Tour! Regarding the app issue, bad weather doesn't affect its functionality since the tour works offline. If you experienced delays, it might help to restart the app next time. This can quickly resolve any glitches and ensure a smoother transition between sites. Remember, your purchase remains valid for a year, so feel free to revisit the tour under hopefully sunnier skies!

The app didn’t locate me very well amidst the tall let buildings, so we needed to manually intervene more than we would have liked.
