My wife and I both thought that St Paul's was one of the more beautiful churches that we have ever visited. We went last Sunday. The bad part of going on a Sunday is that most of the "sights" within the church are closed. The good part is that it is possible to experience a service there. The singing was... more

St. Paul's is one of the most beautiful man-made creations I have ever seen. I have not seen the Vatican, but I would think this cathedral would give it a run for its money. My tour group only allowed 30 minutes to visit this masterpiece. Someday I hope to return and savor it in its entirety. The only thing I... more

It is masterpiece!!!!!!! On a recent London/France trip with about a dozen church visits... St Paul's takes the cake for the most beautiful church we have seen. (Note: my husband states the Vatican is nearly a tie.) Compared to Westminster Abbeye, St Paul's is hand's down more beautiful.. but it lacks the "history" you find at Westminster. Of our entire... more

St. Paul's is a must-see. From its amazing exterior to the brilliant and stunningly beautiful dome on the inside, you can't miss this sight. Be sure to walk up the 1000+ steps to the top of the dome to enjoy a beautiful view of London. more

A lot of visitors seem to overlook St Paul's, or simply know it as the place where Diana and Charles got married, which is a pity, because in my mind it's as beautiful as Westminster Abbey. It's also a stunning architectural masterpiece by Christopher Wren - the dome looks impressive enough on the outside, but when you get inside and... more

I am not a religious person at all, but I love visiting places with history and plenty of nice art and archetecture. Well, St Paul's Cathedral is obviously one of these places! It wasn't very crowdy when I visited, so I enjoyed walking around, admiring the paintings and statues and tombs, and soaking in the atmosphere. I used an audio,... more

Gorgeous cathedral! Go to Westminster for history, but St. Paul's is sheer elegance. The entrance fee is a little high, but not enough to stop me from going again. As far as people's complaints about rude staff, I encountered none. The no camera rule is made clear when you come in and you choose to pay admission with that knowledge,... more

Many who go to England go to Westminster Abbey and Canterbery Cathedral but they forget or overlook one of the best religious sites in Britian. St. Paul's is well known to many children because of Mary Poppins and so there are many tourists who travel there to "feed the birds" but fair warning I have be lectured by Londoners and... more

Although I do not consider myself religious is any sense, I loved visiting St.Pauls. Although the main puropse is obviously a church, the beautiful architecture and carvings are simply amazing to see. Climbing up the stairs to the top of the Cathedral is a wonderful ( allbeit tiring ) experience! The view from the took can only be described as... more

I visited St. Paul's twice during my trip to London. The first was a self-guided/audio tour of the cathedral proper, the second was as part of "The Blitz" tour from London Walks. As a first time visitor to London I was aware that this is one of the many "must-sees" during the trip. My thoughts: History: Anyone interested in history... more
