🇬🇧 Just 1 Hour from London: Sunlight Through Medieval Windows

🇬🇧 Just 1 Hour from London: Sunlight Through Medieval Windows A quick 40-minute train from London Kings Cross (or ~1hr from St Pancras) brings you to the quaint town of Peterborough. While the city itself is unremarkable, its Peterborough Cathedral is a hidden masterpiece. ⛪ Peterborough Cathedral Norman-Gothic grandeur dating back to the 12th century (Southern Song Dynasty era!). Ceiling marvels: German oak panels, painted and installed 800 years ago—still breathtaking. Stained glass: Sunlight filters through centuries-old windows, casting ethereal glows. Free entry (donations appreciated) + rare guided tower tours (book ahead!). 📍 Minster Precinct, Peterborough PE1 1XS 🌳 Nearby Gems Quaint cafes/shops (1-2 hrs to explore). Burghley House (opens mid-March—winter closure). #LondonDayTrips #UKHistory #GothicArchitecture
