The Round Church in Cambridge is an interesting piece of history. With its unique circular architecture, this 12th-century church stands as a symbol of medieval architecture and design. It's also one of the 4 standing round churches in England. Entry is ticketed and dog friendly. The adult ticket costs £3.50, and the kids go free. Highly recommended for a traquil visit to learn about Cambridge's history.

Lovely family fun, lotza pools and the" plume of doom", name chosen by the grandkids, is the best ride ever. Friendly, helpful staff. You don't have to get bored at all, so many many activities. Perfectly working facilities. Lifeguards always on the lookout and taking care that everybody stays safe. Loved the whole experience Pine 343

這個建築叫做The Round Church(圓形聖墓教堂),像這樣蓋成圓形的教堂實在不太常見 這座教堂建於西元1130年,原本西歐的大部份教堂的平面圖都是蓋成十字形的,但是像這樣蓋成圓形的教堂卻有生命--死亡--復活這樣輪迴的象徵意義。 西元4世紀時,第一位信奉基督教的羅馬帝國皇帝君士坦丁大帝在當時是羅馬天主教聖地的耶路撒冷修建了第一座圓形聖墓教堂,用來紀念耶穌的復活。後來耶路撒冷落入伊斯蘭教手中, 直到1099年十字軍東征收復了耶路撒冷之後,他們重建了圓形聖墓教堂。這些十字軍中有不少來自英國,他們深受耶路撒冷的聖墓教堂的啓發,回國後也開始在英國建立圓形教堂。 像這樣的圓形教堂在英國總共有四座,都是在第一次十字軍東征之後建立的。 這座教堂因為就位在Bridge Street, St. John's Street, Sidney Street和Round Church Street的十字路口,不注意到它都很難。 不過呢,因為來這裡的信徒愈來愈多,從1994年開始信徒不得不搬到Lion Yard旁的St Andrew The Great教堂,目前The Round Church已經成為劍橋基督教遺產中心的辦事處。 教堂後面這個維多莉亞是建築,是Cambridge Union Society,是採會員制的debating club,從這裡孕育出不少首相和思想家。前面兩旁都種滿了不同顏色的玫瑰花。

Architecturally, the rare structure was absolutely worth to see.
