I think we all owe a big thank you to the marvelous architect, Christopher Wren who designed Saint Paul’s Cathedral. This masterpiece of neo-classical architecture is truly awe-inspiring and beautiful. Within the cathedral is the architect’s tomb inscribed in Latin, "Reader, if you seek his memorial, look about you". It certainly is a fitting tribute to Christopher Wren and a treasure for us all. A "must-see" in London.

Good Journeys!

Visited St Pauls (for the 3rd time) yesterday. I am over from Australia with my two children aged 5 and 9. Obviously couldnt leave my littlest one at the apartment, so we all paid to go in. Amazing and gorgeous place, very beautiful and my 9 year old loved it. However couple of incidents marred what would have been a very spiritual experience for both me and my children. My daughter was reprimanded in the Crypt for stamping her foot (which was not done in anger) - not with words but with a click of the tongue, a shake of the head and daggers at me ie. bad mother! In addition my son tried to ask a question of one of the attendants who looked at him and basically ignored him. Whilst I understand this is a place of reverance and quiet, I also feel that this is a fabulous example of British history and children (of all ages) should be encouraged to experience it and learn about it. But having said that - children will be children! Interestingly, there was a school group there who were "being children" and nothing was said to them.

So I would suggest that if you are intending to go with younger children, DONT, unless you want to experience 'precious' and haughty staff watching your every move.

I visited St Pauls cathedral last week for the first time in about 20 years and to be honest I had completely forgotten how beautiful and special this building is.

The guides are a mine of knowledge and well worth picking their brains on any question you may have about the history or anything relating to the cathedral.

There are some people who may think 'oh another church' or because they are not religious, may not even think about visiting St Pauls. But this building will appeal to everyone - it really is spectacular.

St. Paul's is pretty amazing to see - it stands out in the architecture and has a great view from Tate Modern and the Millennium Bridge. Inside, there is an audio tour to help walk you through the history of the structure - it's worth listening to, so you know what you're looking at.

If you're up for it and in decent shape, take the stairs trip up to the dome and lookout area. It's a long hike up a spiral staircase to get up to the dome area, which is the whisper room. This room is amazing - I had friends on the side of the room whisper a few words and I could hear them on the other side of the dome! The sound just bounces all over the walls there - pretty amazing to hear. From there, you can ascend a very tight and somewhat difficult stone stair climb up to the outdoor lookout area where you'll have a few of much of London.

We loved visiting St Pauls Catherdal and is worth a visit if your in London.

St Pauls is not just a religious and architectural landmark, it is a busy working church where millions have come to find peace and the love of god.

The part we enjoyed the most was the galleries, where you climb up 528 steps to the golden gallery with excellent views of London.

You wont be dissappointed with St pauls catherdal,go early to avoid the crowds.
