St Paul's Cathedral

Got to say it, St Paul’s Cathedral is pretty tough. Over the years, it’s survived wars, fires and neglect, tumbling down and rising up until good old Sir Christopher Wren got the job of rebuilding it into its current form in 1668.

Even if you’ve never been before, you’ve definitely seen it on the telly – it’s where Charles married Diana – and it’s even lovelier inside than out. There are guided and self-guided tours (in lots of languages) that take you from way down in the Crypt right up the Stone and Golden Galleries. And you can even see fancy bits not usually open to the public, like the Geometric Staircase and the Quire. Get your St Paul's Cathedral to see it for yourself.

As you stroll along, you can check out amazing artwork by the likes of Bill Viola and Henry Moore, and The Collections has lots of interesting info about people who fought for justice over the years (and have some sort of St Paul’s connection – (like John Howard and Martin Luther King).
