The Basilica of Our Lady of Peace of Yamoussoukro, however, gets the official billing by Guinness World Records. Located in the Ivory Coast, the church measures 640 feet long and 518 feet high. Lebanese-born architect Pierre Fakhoury designed the West African complex in the style of Rome's St. Peter's Basilica. When it opened in 1990, it was presented as a gift to the Vatican by then-president Félix Houphouet-Boigny.
