St. Paul's Cathedral
Christopher Wren's Masterpiece
Back to St. Paul's Cathedral
This is not to be missed on your trip to London. Absolutely gorgeous. If you can, step into one of the side chapels to sit for a moment. We were lucky enough to see a wedding party emerge and we applauded the bride and groom and took pictures (from outside). Close to lots of other stuff. This will take you under two hours to see, if time is at a premium.

I loved the view of London and the view of the inside of the Cathedral from the Dome.

i went into st. paul's thinking it'll just be like another european cathedral but it was nothing but ordinary. it's by far the best one i've ever visited. the ceiling paintings are beautiful, and, a lot to take, in fact i had to sit down to gaze up properly so i wouldn't get dizzy!

One of our top 3 sights !! It is absolutely beautiful, and there is a lot to see !! You can climb to the top if you have the time and energy... or walk down to the crypt. It is interesting down there, and displays are labeled with information. The gift shop and restrooms are also downstairs.

St. Paul's is a must-see. From its amazing exterior to the brilliant and stunningly beautiful dome on the inside, you can't miss this sight. Be sure to walk up the 1000+ steps to the top of the dome to enjoy a beautiful view of London.

As soon as you walk in there is a cashier with her cash register waiting for you. Sure, I knew that you had to pay to enter the "church", but I did not realize how much you have to pay. I did not pay to enter but I did take a nice picture outside.

It was a gorgeous Cathedral that made me dizzy when I looked up to the hugely massive ceiling! It was a most spiritual adventure touring this gigantic church. I would love to go back and visit again!

All of the artwork was fantabulous. The music got a little annoying after a while but other than that I loved it. Bring earplugs, you might need them.

Not being Catholic, I did not quite understand the appeal of a massive cathedral. The prospect of it seemed boring and a waste of our limited time in London. But it was an amazingly pleasant time. The mood inside the cathedral is one of reverance, both for God and for the history of the building. But the secret lies in about 3000 steps you can climb to the top of the tower. The trip is divided into three sections, each unique, with the last being a bird's-eye view of London from the top of the cathedral's dome. Well worth the hike.
