Real Traveler reviews for St. Paul's Cathedral

More information on St. Paul's Cathedral

First built in 694 but destroyed by the Great Fire in 1666, the beautiful building that stands today was designed by Christopher Wren and completed in 1710. St. Paul's has been host to many great occasions including the funeral of Sir Winston Churchill in 1965 and the wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer in 1981. There are numerous treasures to see and experience in St. Paul's - a visit is a must. However, the Whispering Gallery is worth a special mention. Just a whisper against the blank circular wall can be heard 42 meters away on the opposite side. Admission is GBP10 for adults; seniors GBP9; students GBP8.50; children (under 16) GBP3.50; concession GBP7. There is a small additional charge to visit the galleries.
