Iconic St Paul's. London ( Explore ) by Roy Llowarch Via Flickr: St Paul's Cathedral London is an iconic and world famous cathedral in the heart of central London. St Paul's is well worth a visit. It's a long climb but you can climb the steps until you are above the dome and half way between the dome and the very top. It's a great view out over central London. I am pleased that I climbed to the top years ago as I would not be able to manage it now. Photo taken with my Samsung phone camera on a beautiful sunny day without a cloud in the sky. I have added the Wiki link below for this interested in the history of the cathedral en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Paul%27s_Cathedral
