Sadly, they won't be selling any heels. Just religion.

So there's a giant glass slipper in Budai Town, Taiwan.

And it has nothing to do with Cinderella.

What exactly is it? A church. Yes, a damn church.

The building is composed mostly of blue-tinted glass and stands 55 feet-tall and 36 feet-wide, and it only took two months to build.

The stiletto-shaped sanctuary was designed by Cloud Management as a tribute to Taiwanese women whose feet were amputated due to blackfoot disease.

Blackfoot Disease is an "endemic peripheral vascular disease confined to the southwestern coast of Taiwan," caused by the consumption of untreated water containing heavy amounts of arsenic. Historically, Taiwanese women have suffered far more severe cases of BFD than men.

Everything about the church's design, both exterior and interior, was conceived with attracting women in mind.

A spokesman for the Southwest Coast National Scenic Area, Zheng Rongfeng, told Huanqiu that the church is filled with decorations and amenities that cater to female preferences.

So just how "women-oriented" is the church? Very.

The building holds over 100 "women-specific features" like "chairs for lovers of maple leaves, biscuits and cakes."

Because everyone knows women love maple leaves and biscuits. Who knows, maybe it's a cultural thing?

While construction is practically complete, the high-heeled house of worship won't be opening its doors until February 8th of 2016.
