St Pauls from Millennium Bridge
The Millennium footbridge is a great way to get to St Paul’s Cathedral from Tate Modern on the other side of the river. You have to pay a substantial fee to get in which always annoys us, but once inside there is a trip you can do going up to the dome. This is a fantastic experience, and there is also the opportunity to go outside and look at the views of London. On the dome level, you’ll find the famous “Whispering Gallery” where the acoustics allow you to whisper to someone on the other side and still be heard. Nearest tube station is St Pauls. This is an extract from our free London City Guide.
