This church, known as the second and fifth Church in Britain, was built in 604 A.D. and is now seen as a revision of Sir Christopher Ryan in 1675. It has gathered most of his life's efforts and has his tombstone in the church's palace. St. Paul's Cathedral has witnessed many famous historical events: the 50th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth's accession to the throne; the funerals of Nelson, Wellington, Churchill and Mrs. Thatcher; the centuries'wedding of Charles and Diana; so when it comes to London, the streets are full of churches, and only this one has to be checked in. Metro Central Line to St. Paul's Station, walk for three minutes, after leaving the station, you can see the towering bell tower, the church dome in the cracks, to ensure that you will not get lost. The front door of the church is in the Northwest direction. In front of the front door is a statue of Queen Anne holding a sceptre and a treasure ball of the monarch. It is said that the Queen Anne is a super eater. Her political achievements are mediocre but loved. She is called Good Queen Anne. Photography is forbidden in St. Paul's Cathedral. Rent an earphone for 6 pounds to listen to the introduction, calm down and walk around. The Nave is the main venue for public gathering during large-scale events or ceremonies, and of course the main access for clergy and choirs to the altar. The North Aisle / the South Aisle is on both sides of the channel. The North Passage includes the All Souls Chapel, the St. Dunstan Chapel and the Wellington Monument for visitors. The South Passage includes the Saints Michael and St. George's Chapel. Through the hall, they came to the magnificent dome below, light and shade contrast to create a strong sense of three-dimensional, so have been looking up and open mouth to see saliva, unconsciously for many years cervical spondylitis has also been cured. On both sides are the North Transept / The North Transept, a monument to William Holman Hunt, the British painter, and Nelson, the hero of the Trafalgar naval battle. The central axis of the church is the magnificent and solemn place, the high altar, where the choir, the bishop of London, the Archbishop of Canterbury and the clergy take their places during the service. In this place, it seems that you can hear the choir's beautiful chorus. Sao Paulo Cathedral Palace is mainly used to place the coffins of national heroes and celebrities, but also to return earphones, bathrooms, souvenirs place, is also exported. The longitudinal exploration of the Sao Paulo auditorium is also a wonderful experience. From bottom to top are (whispering gallery), (Stone Gallery) and (Golden Gallery). After climbing the 257th staircase from the side entrance, we arrived at the magical whisper gallery. On the wall, you can hear the whispers of the people facing you. You can hear the languages of different countries. Continue your efforts to climb outside the dome and look around London for a week at your feet.

    I visited St Paul’s cathedral with my friends and it was much bigger than I was expected.Highly recommended to go up to the stairs to get to the whispering gallery and if you’re tough enough, try to get more higher using narrow stairs so you can get out and see the London landscape(my friend did and she liked that). beautiful artworks as well as famous people’s coffin, it’s very entertaining.

    St. Paul's Cathedral, a 300-year-old architectural masterpiece by Sir Christopher Wren, has been a London icon and a place of Christian worship for over 1400 years. The dome consists of a plastered brick inner dome, a nonstructural lead outer dome visible on the skyline and a brick cone between them. The Whispering Gallery, accessed via 257 steps, offers a glimpse of the city's vistas, while the Stone Gallery offers a glimpse of the city.
