Our first day in London has honestly been speechless, this city is truly monumental. As we started our Saturday morning, it was just amazing to walk through the streets of London and finally see and physically experience how beautiful this city is. Around noon we arrived to St. Paul’s Cathedral, which has been my #1 favorite spot throughout the trip. Just walking through the front entrance of the church was indescribable, just to think that many years ago important figures of England, like kings, walked through the same path was unbelievable. When I finally got inside my eyes didn’t know were to look because of all the details the church has. Beautiful paintings, a tremendous large space, and most important all the galleries it has inside. As I stood in the center of the church looking up towards the dome and James Thornhill’s painting, just made realized the time and effort it them to make all these details to perfection. It was truly a special moment to stand in the middle and look up for 5 minutes and understand how art and architecture are implemented in this church. Also not to forget all the stairs I had to go up, to get the best view of London (it was not fun going up the stairs but it was TOTALLY worth it). The picture below is my favorite picture of St. Paul’s Cathedral. As the sun goes down you get this beautiful side view of the church, a historical marker that still stands high and strong in the city of London. I’m 100% sure I’ll be back here before we go home!
