Chester Cathedral

Amazing visit to a jewel in the Northwest area! Fantastic building on its own, but with the added plus of a model railway setup to drool over. Had a great day with great mates and heartily reccomended a visit to this wonderful cathedral!

The Christmas markets held around the Cathedral were ideally placed to enjoy the market and the rest of the city. Great selection of vendors and wares and in my option better than Manchester or Birmingham markets

Absolutely stunning cathedral and it’s free entry. Lots of details about the history of the region and the importance of this cathedral. Nice posh cafe inside woth seasonal menus. The best highlight is the eagle wooden stand in front of the church speaker which looks like the owl one in the harry potter films.

Chester Cathedral is a phenomenal place to visit, 7 days a week.With totally phenomenal grandeur, the architecture and just pure total beauty to admire is breathtaking, I was totally was.From the outside of the Cathedral does not look that big in size, but once inside it's as big as if not more than Dr Who s Tardis, and then some. With total breathtaking places to see inside, like the Lego model of the Cathedral is just spectacular.The main alter and lectern are specially lovely as you gaze in its beauty and size, directly in front of the alter are the choir stalls and dark wooden carvings, it looks and resembles extremely similar to the Carol's at Kings on Christmas Eve every year on BBC2, takes your breath away of its beuty.There is also a large bronze nativity scene situated in an alcove of a walkway there is also a cafe, and fantastic gift shop, which I bought a fridge magnet of a keepsake of my visit.Inexpensive cost to come in either a small donation or the option to pay a very nominal entry fee donation in way of upkeep of the building.A must place to visit 7 days a week at anytime between opening hours, and especially a very cheap and inexpensive place to come if you have a family and school holidays like half termWeeks in this cost of living crisis.

Well worth a visit. An interesting mix of modern stained glass windows and original medieval. Quite a bit bigger than it looks externally. Definitely something yo visit if you happen to be in Chester.

This Cathedral is wonderful and must be visited! The star of our visit was Emma who took us on the tour of the tower. Don't be put off by the number of stairs and narrow passages, the tour is broken by visits to balconies with views into the cathedral. Emma gave a concise, informative and clear history of all we saw. We loved Chester but the tower tour topped everything!

Very nice looking as we walked past on the walls… visit tomorrow! Just visited - very impressive indeed.

The most beautiful cathedral we visited on our tour of the UK. It was magnificent! A history dating back to 1092 with amazing architecture and woodwork. A must see if you are in Chester.

If you want to visit one of Britain's grandest cathedrals this is the place to go. Majestic on the outside and beautiful on the inside, whether your religious or not this building will leave you in a state of wonder. You can admire the majestic interior of the building or just sit in a quiet alcove and let your thoughts drift back into history to the times of the previous Bishops or even your loved ones of the past. It even has things for the children to see, including a duplicate copy of the cathedral which they are currently constructing in Lego. There is a shop where you can purchase religious artifacts and local jewelry and there is a cafe where you can get very good food at a reasonable price. You can also purchase a sandwich, drink or a meal to be given to the homeless, an excellent idea in which I participated. A visit not to be missed and if you can stay a few days you can explore the beautiful city of Chester.

Beautiful place to walk through. It’s a donation of £5 to enter. There’s a cafe, toilets, garden and Lego area. They offer tours too. The architecture is stunning on the inside.
