Renowned as a must-see tourist destination in the city of London, its intriguing legacy attracts thousands of visitors every year.

Gazing up into the dome from the floor below and enjoying the exquisite grisaille mursal that feature scenes from the life of St. Paul is one of the most awe-inspiring sights one can enjoy. Visitors can also climb up the dome and experience the acoustic quirks of the whispering gallery, which runs around the interior of the dome. As you enter the Golden Gallery which runs around the highest point of the outer Dome you are greeted to a panoramic view of the city of London.

You can also visit the Crypt, the cathedral's foremost burial place and discover the plaques, statues, tombs and memorials of those who have made an outstanding contribution to the life of the British nation and the world.

The cathedral is open to sightseers from Monday to Saturday. Disabled facilities are also included. The nearest underground station is St.paul's. Mansion House and Cannon Street stations are also within walking distance. You can take one of the many tours the cathedral provides for its visitors and treat yourself to a delicious lunch at the cathedral's restaurant. Surely, a visit to this lasting monument to the glory of God is one you will never forget.
