What is an "aisle"?
An aisle is a passageway within a church or other religious building, typically located alongside the main area where people gather for worship. It runs parallel to the central part of the building, separating rows of seats or pews. Aisles provide space for movement, allowing worshippers to enter, exit, or approach the altar without disrupting others. They may also be used for ceremonies during religious events. The design of aisles can enhance the overall layout and flow of the space, creating an inviting atmosphere for community gatherings.
a long, narrow passage in a natural or architectural setting, such as a cave or wooded area
