St. Paul's Cathedral
📍 From Distaff Street, United Kingdom
St. Paul's Cathedral is a stunning Baroque-style cathedral located in the city of London, United Kingdom. It is a large Anglican cathedral that serves as the seat of the Bishop of London, and is the mother church of the Diocese of London. It is one of the most famous churches in the world and has been a focal point of the city for hundreds of years.

The cathedral was built after the Great Fire of London in 1666 by the famous architect Christopher Wren, who had studied the city's ruins and designs. The result is a fundamentally Baroque building, but with Classical and Renaissance elements. From a distance, its impressive dome stands out and attracts visitors from all over the world. Inside, the cathedral is adorned with white marble and unrivaled architectural artwork. Stone sculptures, painted ceilings, and other decoration of the interior represent the gospel and display scenes of the city's history. St. Paul’s also houses the tombs of some of the most important figures in English history, such as the Duke of Wellington and Admiral Nelson. Visitors can take guided tours of the cathedral’s gardens and its crypts, which are extraordinary and unusual places. The galleries also offer spectacular views of the city and its surroundings through their windows. The site can be visited any day, including Sundays, and is accessible to the public.
