Absolutely gorgeous. When I visited in the mid 80s, I only visited in the main sanctuary. But I was only there for like a half an hour because my mother wanted to go shopping. LOL So beautiful. Wow, thank you for the special views for just us members!!! We are special! LOL, yes, looking up so much of the beautiful art work, I would get a sore neck. LOL Such a treat, you took us way up on top. I love the choir! My my, the gilding is wonderful. The Stone Gallery on the upper outside lends to some gorgeous views of London. And we go higher?!! Ya. My, 600 AD!!! That is hard to comprehend and that people can still climb and go in and the intricate stone work and art work is still wonderful. I never knew you could go up top like this. The stair way looks like those of a typical US light house. AH!! The Golden Gallery!! I would love to climb to this. Your organ music piece and English classical musical piece here are so apropos! So looking at London's landmarks, it looks like you are higher than the London Eye! Is that correct? Just spectacular. On some of your London landmarks, what is The Shard? Elephant's Castle and Shakespeare Globe are new to me, never heard of them. The Crypt was awesome - all the historical monarchs and states people!! Duke of Wellington and Florence Nightingale! I would appreciate that free audio tour. My favorite is the Golden Gallery and the lovely ceilings of the ground floors. I really enjoyed this and thank you for all the detailed history. This was way different from my quick visit years ago. LOL. Blessings. Westminster Abbey - coming up!!!

Great filming. So beautiful you could go many times. And loved that you labelled the landmarks. 💜

What a fantastic 👏 📹🎥. I have been waiting for this. You would never get me to those heights as I am afraid 😨 of heights. I know I couldn't do those stairs at all. You must be very fit. There were cranes unfortunately 😕😔😞. The views were stunning 😍 despite that. What beautiful architecture . It's amazing to think that people had to go to those heights to do them. It's like the old portraits you just couldn't make a mistake. It would be very difficult I am sure as you are in such a weird position to create the 🎨🖼 artwork. You really showed the beauty of the cathedral. I don't think I ever went there myself all the time I lived in England. As it's just there all the time you just don't think about them. It's a shame that the whispering gallery was closed. I was hoping Jaden and you would try it out !. Really great video 📹👍👏.

Wow - layered, fascinating, anthropologically dense. Thanks as always, Steve.

I loved the view from the very top. Gorgeous. I will visit St. Pauls during my next visit and that is in two weeks. Greetings from Germany!

[barnesCh]

Great video! It looks like there is a lot of construction going on in London--lots of cranes!

[channysmith]

Steve thank you so much for the video of Saint Paul's Cathedral. It was amazing.

[Mark]

Steve, it's your unbridled passion which separates your channel from the rest of the pack - that, and your informational tips which make one's visit that much more enjoyable, or prevent one's visit from being less than enjoyable. You are too good to us! Another brilliant video - thanks for sharing all the amazing areas and aspects of this magnificent cathedral. Question: Is there any information shown in St. Paul's about the bomb dropped on the cathedral during WWII? I am looking forward to your next movie: Carry On Climbing. Favorite bit: those panoramic views from the top, though as someone is is mortified by heights, I will thank you for allowing me the chance for such views without the requisite screaming and crying should I ever attempt such a feat. Truly, you are the best.

Visited as a teenager. Forgot how stunning St Pauls is ❤

[juliebabygirl]

Great footage, and what amazing architecture! Your "Tales from the Crypt" was a bit different from what I expected though :D

[MissJudyLee]

Thank you for sharing this beautiful church with us. ⛪️🩶🤍🕊️🙏🏻 So excited to see it live in person

[Anticommunism]

A Masterpiece, probably the prettiest Cathedral in London and Europe !

I was an exchange student in London when I was 17. We visited St.Pauls and Westminster on the same day. I loved the difference between the Gothic and Baroque styles, but I have to admit I liked Westminster a little more. The Stone of Scone was still under the coronation chair then(this was early '96) and one of the guys working at there let me touch it for luck. Best trip of my life...

2 of my favourite brits of all time are christopher wren (architect of st pauls) and joseph bazelget (creater of the london sewage system) love studying about the people whose shaped the world that we experience today.

My favourite bit was looking down through that key hole and Nelson’s tomb

[tonimarx]

Amazing that this was built because some random baker burnt 80% of the city down 400yrs ago.

[MissJudyLee]

Hoping to visit St Paul Cathedral in March 🙏🏻 ⛪️ 🕊️ My favorite is the beautiful ceiling a sea of angels and the black and white checker flooring.

6:00 my parents took me up these stairs when I was six years old and it's burned into my memory. I went again today with my five year old and it's still a very white-knuckle, rickety narrow climb up inside the outer dome and every bit as frightening and confusing as I remember. Amazing, but terrifying.

Did they measure bags as you enter? My bag is just a tad bigger than listed size and wonder if I need something different. Thanks!

[kimberly]

I can‘t wait to see the inside of St. Paul‘s Cathedral when I visit London again in February. I mostly want to see the stairs, I‘m a huge Harry Potter fan😅 Are the stairs included in the regular ticket? Thanks for the lovely video☺️
