"A more traditional yet just as impressive feature of London’s skyline is St Paul’s Cathedral. While the cathedral itself dates back 1,400 years, the current structure was reconstructed after the destruction of the Great Fire of London. Inside, climb 257 stairs to enter the cathedral’s famous domed ceiling. Within the domed roof, you will find the Whispering Galleries that were designed to hear a whisper from the opposite side. Climb a little further to the Stone Gallery (376 steps) and The Golden Gallery (528 steps) for wonderful rooftop views across the city. When you’re back at ground level, head downstairs to the crypts, which contain the tombs of Wellington, Nelson, and Sir Christopher Wren. St Paul’s is open to visitors from Monday to Saturday and is closed for service on Sundays. Attend one of the choral evensongs at 5:00 PM from Monday to Saturday for an experience like no other." - MATADOR_NETWORK
