Assuming you mean a gathering-place, it can be very powerful to worship together with others, but the communal experience alone does not guarantee actual worship, of course. You can go to a football match and have a powerful communal experience. I would suspect that it's possible to feel a specific difference brought on by the religious context, but I don't know.
I certainly don't think that a place of worship in itself is guaranteed to make you feel religious. It can happen, but it'll depend on lots of factors other than it being a 'place of worship'.
