St. Paul's Cathedral
St. Paul’s Cathedral differs from many famous cathedrals in the world in that it is the creation of one man — Sir Christopher Wren. Arriving in London, he had to repair the damage caused by the Great Fire, which occurred in the city in 1666. The Cathedral of St. Peter in Rome inspired the architect on the project of the Cathedral of St. Paul. Wren designed the buildings surrounding the cathedral, which architecture repeated the Italian style in many respects, especially the magnificent colonnades. But the land in this area of London was too expensive, and the projects were never implemented. The cathedral was completed at the beginning of the XVIII century. The official opening date is the birthday of the architect Wren - October 20, 1708. There are three galleries under the dome of the building. The Whisper gallery owes its name to unusual acoustics. Any word spoken at one end of the gallery is echoed repeatedly at the other end. There are 17 bells in the cathedral bell towers.
