Today I had longer to spend in Norwich - so behaved like a proper tourist and went to Norwich Cathedral - wow it is fabulous. I paid £5 to enter and it was well worth it. It is so old - but very well maintained and stil in use as a place of Worship. I took hundreds of photos - each time I turned a corner I found something else to oooh and ahh over - my first photo is my POTD and the rest just for your enjoyment!
These are some of the houses in the grounds - fancy living here!
The cloisters
There are so many different and beautifully crafted stained glass windows every where.
This is part of an original frieze - which they have managed to preserve.
This stained glass window depicts its life as a monastery - the monks are still here today with them giving tours of the cathedral.
There were even quite a few knaves, in different parts of the huge building.
This is the new visitor reception centre - I think it blends in very well to this old original entrance.
The ceiling is ornately carved throughout.
Even the entrance gate to the grounds features ornate carvings.
Its well worth a visit if you are ever in Norwich.
