A must see place in London,
st paul's cathedral
St. Paul's Cathedral is London's landmark and representative cathedral, boasting a history of over 300 years. It was completely burned down in the Great Fire of London in 1666, but architect Christopher Wren rebuilt it over the course of 35 years and has its current appearance. It was rebuilt in its current form, with a round dome reaching 110 meters in height.
The interior is very luxuriously decorated. The murals are made of mosaics, and the ceiling paintings are dazzlingly beautiful. In particular, you can climb the cathedral stairs to the dome, and if you climb up to the Stone Gallery, which is an observatory here, you can enjoy a 360-degree view of downtown London.
At St. Paul's Cathedral
Get in first without waiting in line!
St. Paul's Cathedral, which boasts 300 years of history, is one of London's famous travel attractions. One of the highlights of St. Paul's Cathedral is the paintings and decorations on the dome.
Take your time and focus on each and every painting at St. Paul's Cathedral. Beautiful pictures will be more noticeable. In addition to the painting decorations, there are Whispering Gallery, Stone Gallery, and Golden Gallery, so be sure to check them out.
How to easily get to St. Paul's Cathedral
St. Paul's Cathedral in London is located in the Tate Modern on the Thames River. So there are quite a few ways to get there. The nearest metro station is St.Paul's on the Central line. However, it is also close to Mansion House Station, which is a transfer station for the Circle and District Line lines, so you can decide which station is more convenient for your location.
If you're traveling by train, it's also quite close to City Thameslink train station.
How to properly visit St. Paul's Cathedral
St. Paul's Cathedral in London is always crowded with people. So, it is important to decide which order to watch first.
Be the first to see the crypt tombs and monuments! Afterwards, I recommend viewing the first floor chapel, Whispering Gallery, Stone Gallery, and Golden Gallery in that order. You can think of the place as being mentioned first, the more people there are. When traveling to a travel destination like this, it is always best to see the popular places first.
Mass is open to everyone
Another fun thing about St. Paul's Cathedral in London is experiencing mass firsthand. On weekdays, including Saturdays, masses are usually held at 7:30, 8:00, 12:30, and 5:00, and I really like the music and voices of the cathedral choir. When you listen to this sound, you can feel at ease. Additionally, there is no cost to attend the mass and it is open to everyone for free.
Basic mass times:
Weekdays and Saturdays: 7:30 AM, 8:00 AM, 12:30 PM & 17:00
Sunday: 8:00 AM, 11:00 AM, 15:15 PM, 16:45 PM & 18:00
- Check the exact mass time each day
Catch an organ recital on Sunday
If you visit St. Paul's Cathedral on a Sunday, you have a great opportunity. Organ recital held only on Sundays! There is a free concert held for about 30 minutes from 4:30 to 5:00 p.m., where you can hear truly high-quality grand organ performance. In particular, the sound of European pipe organs is so perfect.
Organ recitals are scheduled more than a year in advance, so check in advance before visiting St. Paul's Cathedral.
Be sure to climb the cathedral dome
The highlight of St. Paul's Cathedral is climbing the dome and getting a great view! As expected, the city view from high up is truly beautiful. However, the road to the dome of St. Paul's Cathedral is more rugged than you think. First of all, there is no elevator. That's why you have to climb the circular stairs to get up to the dome. So comfortable shoes are essential.
