SALISBURY CATHEDRAL - Amazing Behind The Scenes Tour
While I may love luxury hotels, Michelin starred restaurants and First Class airplane cabins, it's the people I meet and things I get to do that make it great to be a travel writer. When I was in London, I took a day trip out to Wiltshire ( I visited the city of Bath and its Roman ruins, the incredible Salisbury Cathedral ( and finally, Stonehenge. Here's a tour of the cathedral.
Construction on Salisbury Cathedral started in 1220 and it has the same effect it did when it opened almost 800 years ago, it takes your breath away. If you go, be sure to do their Tower Tour, so you can go up into the structure above the floor, like I did. They also have an original copy of the Magna Carta, which is on display in the Chapter House.

Salisbury Cathedral the single most beautiful structure in England
Salisbury Cathedral, formally known as the Cathedral Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary, is an Anglican cathedral in Salisbury, England, and one of the leading examples of Early English architecture. The main body of the cathedral was completed in only 38 years, from 1220 to 1258.
The cathedral has the tallest church spire in the United Kingdom (123m/404 ft). Visitors can take the Tower Tour where the interior of the hollow spire, with its ancient wood scaffolding, can be viewed. The cathedral also has the largest cloister and the largest cathedral close in Britain (80 acres (320,000 m2)). It contains the world's oldest working clock (from AD 1386) and has the best surviving of the four original copies of Magna Carta (all four original copies are in England). In 2008, the cathedral celebrated the 750th anniversary of its consecration.
The cathedral is the mother church of the Diocese of Salisbury and seat of the Bishop of Salisbury.

Salisbury Cathedral Wiltshire | Walk through tour | 4k
I've been to a few cathedrals in England and Salisbury Cathedral is right up there with the best of them.
It's free to walk about the grounds and the ground level of the Cathedral but I would definitely recommend the guided tower tour. It's good value for money, lasts around 90 minutes and the tour guides are very knowledgeable (everything after the 09:45 minute mark in the video is part of the tower tour). The groups are restricted to 12 people at a time, so you don't have to worry about them being too busy. The climb to the top is broken up into stages and is not too strenuous.
The Cathedral is only a short walk from Salisbury train station and the surrounding city is very nice too.
Thanks for watching :)

Salisbury Cathedral 6 min with narration by David Oakes
Salisbury Cathedral is unique amongst medieval English cathedrals having been built in just 38 years (1220 - 1258) in a single architectural style, early English Gothic. The tower and spire (Britain's tallest) were added about 50 years later. The building itself is remarkable, a testimony to the faith and practical skills of those who erected it.
But it is much more than a historical monument. It is a living church and a place of prayer. As the Cathedral Church of the Salisbury diocese it is Mother Church of several hundred parishes in Wiltshire and Dorset. It is also a centre of pilgrimage for hundreds of thousands of visitors every year.
