The church is defined by the eight large stone piers that alternate with
the curved, columned niches, pushing outward.  These vertical supports soar
all the way up the to the top of the church, some fifty feet above ground. 
The complex piers, their nuclei almost concealed by attached pilasters and
engaged columns, called 'cluster piers' which support the heavy dome in the
center.  To your north you can see a small recess in the wall, a niche, and
the surrounding forechoir to your northwest and southwest.
