St Paul's Cathedral

The Anglican cathedral in London, designed by Christopher Wren and completed in 1710, serves as the seat of the Bishop of London. Its massive dome, one of the largest in the world, contains the famous Whispering Gallery. The gallery's specific curvature and smooth stone finish allow acoustic waves to travel along the circumference with minimal loss, creating a world-renowned example of guided wave physics.
