Lonely Planet review for St Paul’s Cathedral

Even the bombs of the Blitz couldn't erase the distinctive dome of London's most famous church. St Paul's was built by Sir Christopher Wren to replace the medieval cathedral destroyed in the Great Fire, but he had to sneak his plans for a dramatic dome past the City planners. Head to the crypt for memorials to famous Londoners and the Golden Gallery atop the dome for awesome City views.

    Art history lovers and Architecture lovers are gonna be thrown out of their seats. St Paul's Cathedral is a must see, but its entrance price can be a no-no for the more budget-restricted visitors. If you are like us, and have to pray each time you are using your credit or debit card, you might be content with the sight of the exterior and the entrance only.
