RE: A wander around Peterborough Cathedral

in #history4 years ago

I love the ceiling behind the altar, it's so beautiful! When I go to churches and cathedrals in UK , (as a tourist and not a worshipper) it always amazes me how people did all those intricate work and they still last till this day.

Sort:  

It seems religion really did inspire them. Could they imagine that people would be enjoying their works centuries later? Mind you, some would not live to see the building completed as it took so long,

It seems sad that with our modern technology we build structures are so bland and they don't even last.
