Ever since Hitler failed to destroy St Paul's during the blitz in the second World War, the cathedral has held a special affection in the hearts of real Londoners. The abbey itself was rebuilt by Sir Christopher Wren after the Great Fire of 1666.

St Paul's has been the setting for many great events in British history including the funerals of Lord Nelson and Winston Churchill as well as the wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana.

Any visit to the cathedral must include a climb to the top of the dome via a long spiral staircase, the view from the top will stay with you for ever. It is also well worth well trying to see the cathedral at night lit up by floodlights-magnificent.
