Rothko Chapel

There is a great energy here, fall into the paintings with an easy eye and breath, they know the nature of reality, the borders dissolve and the purple envelopes, just as the façade of what we see

The Rothko Chapel is a must in Houston, even if you can only stop by for a few minutes. It's in an interesting neighborhood and you should definitely walk around the chapel and explore.

This place is quiet enough that I can hear my heart beating in my ears. It goes from meditative to unnerving really fast.

The neighborhood it's so weird and quiet . The chapel is between houses. The paintings are so great, the place inside it's really relaxing and calm .

An art chapel that feels like a real place of worship. A fantastic place to meditate or write.

There are 12 black rectangles around the walls, and 3 stones in front of one wall. I didn't measure the proportions on the rectangles, but they seemed 4 x 3.

The skylight is divided into 12 parts, like a clock face, and the frame around it into 8 parts, like a compass. These are all factored into the first 4 natural numbers: 1 x 2 x 4 = 8, 1 x 3 x 4 = 12.

Highly recommended. A place where time seemingly stand still.

Very quiet and serene place to connect with yourself.

This is a good place to reflect. Nice little place. They wouldn’t allow photos inside, though.

Contemplation and action are Rothko Chapel’s dual vocations and the program offerings reflect both. Have you tried one of the noon-time meditations ?

Sit, put your phone on airplane mode, and allow yourself to meditate .

This place is beautiful. It is so peaceful and serene . It just speaks to me.

A great complement to the currebt Rothko exhibition @ MFA

Definitely the most unusual chapel I've ever been.

Incredible, world-renowned. Go see why.

I love to meditate here!

Amazing place to contemplate unfortunate medical news.

Didn't see the rainbow, but love the concept

The statue is gone btw

Calm , quite.

Interesting way to present Rothko art . The feeling of death.

Where soft soled shoes or you will be embarrassed.

Their lecture series is excellent.

Just had a spiritual experience...

I don't ever go inside. Just sit outside by the pool

40 minute meditations for 40 days to celebrate 40th anniversary of the Rothko Chapel.

Come here on a cloudy windy day and watch the light change on the paintings ..

Lovely, lovely.

Go to Rothko Chapel and enjoy the serenity . Read more
