December 2024A stunning building that is well worth a visit. The UK’s largest cathedral, with stunning stained glass windows and interior. Lovely walk around the cathedral also.

December 2024O enjoyed it a lot! It's very massive in size and there is even a Caffè in in. Very beautiful architecture. If you go there, you Must go to the tower! The view is fascinating. Just if you have a fear of height, be prepared. The stairway is very steep at the top and you can see like 100 meters down while climbing it.

November 2024Huge cathedral that impresses a lot when you’re inside. From the outside it looks big but inside it’s much more. A great architectural work that is worth visiting. There is plenty of space and you can be calm.

December 2024Liverpool Cathedral is an absolutely stunning place to visit. It’s one of the largest cathedrals in the world, and you can feel its size as soon as you walk through the doors. The architecture is breathtaking, with massive stone arches, intricate carvings, and beautiful stained-glass windows that light up the whole space. It’s the kind of place that makes you stop and stare. One of the highlights is the tower. If you’re up for a bit of a climb, you’re rewarded with incredible views of the city and even as far as Wales on a clear day. Inside, the atmosphere is peaceful, whether you’re religious or just looking for some quiet time. There are also modern touches, like a colorful neon art piece that adds a unique twist to the traditional setting. The staff are friendly and happy to answer questions about the history and design. There’s also a nice café and gift shop if you want to take a break. Whether you’re into history, architecture, or just looking for a memorable experience in Liverpool, this cathedral is definitely worth a visit. It’s awe-inspiring without being overwhelming, and it really shows off the city’s cultural heritage.
