O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Toranj katedrale visok 68 metara čini je drugim najvišim crkvenim tornjem u Ujedinjenom Kraljevstvu. Njena izgradnja trajala je 122 godine od 1072. godine, a zgrada je zamijenila raniju normansku crkvu na istom mjestu.
Istaknuto: Posjetioci se mogu popeti 270 stepenica uz usko spiralno stepenište do vrha zvonika i uživati u panoramskom pogledu na London sa 52 metra visine. Toranj također sadrži set od 12 zvona, od kojih je najveće teško preko 1,5 tona i zvoni na početku nedjeljnih službi.
Insajderski savjeti
- Arrive for Choral Evensong (typically 5pm weekdays) to hear the choir for free in the full acoustic glory of the nave.
- Look for the small medieval wall painting of the Virgin and Child tucked in the south transept, easily missed but over 700 years old.
- Photography is allowed without flash, but avoid the midday glare by visiting when light streams through the east window.
- Skip the gift shop queue and instead pick up a guide booklet from the volunteer desk for a self-guided tour.
