Entrance fee is £5 per person. Allow yourself some time, as the cathedral is very large and complex. Its cloister and courtyard are very beautiful. Inside the church, there was a replica made of Lego bricks, illuminated, and even a detailed interior.

Originally called the New Tower, the Water Tower stands at the end of a crenellated retaining wall in an area now known as Tower Gardens. The spur wall connects the Water Tower to Bonewaldesthorne Tower, located at the northwest angle of the main walls. The lower area where the Water Tower stands was once covered by the River Dee before the river silted up and receded. The Water Tower was built in 1322 by the mason John de Helpeston for the sum of 100 pounds and remains largely unchanged today. The Water Tower's purpose was to guard Chester's port. Now that the river has receded, the "Tower Gardens" area is a pleasant place to relax in fine weather. There is a children's playground and a bowling alley at the Water Tower.

Morgan's Mount is a tower on the north side of Chester's city walls that served as a lookout platform during the English Civil War. It is the first tower along the walls west of the North Gate. It takes its name from a gun battery located outside the present walls, commanded by Captain Edward Morgan during the Civil War. Source: http://www.discoverchester.co.uk/

Handy if you spot a stray animal and need to put it somewhere safe

In every street of the old town you can see many houses with this specific style - what a pleasure to observe each of them, looking similar but so many differences when you pay attention. Some of them are really old…

Another grand old historical building. Chester Cathedral, there are many trees in the cathedral grounds, making it difficult to take a clear photo

Great lighting inside

This is one of the most beautiful cathedrals on show in the whole of the UK. It is simply magnificent! It has a history dating back to 1092 when it was first constructed as a Benedictine Abbey. It took 275 years to transform the building into the beautiful Gothic-style structure you see on display today.The architecture is amazing as is the woodwork craftsmanship. A totally must see if you are in Chester.
