概要
クイックファクト: The cathedral boasts the tallest stone spire in the United Kingdom, reaching 123 meters. It preserves one of the four original copies of the Magna Carta, a document dating from 1215.
見どころ: The chapter house features a remarkable suspended vault that defies the laws of gravity without any visible support. A Foucault pendulum rotates there, illustrating the Earth's rotation in a fascinating way at the heart of the church.
