Being close to the King Richard exhibition, Leicester Cathedral is a natural progression to see the final resting place of King Richard III. It is not as grand as some Cathedrals bit quite lovely in its own way. It has the typical quiet and calm they tend to offer outside of service. The tomb is tastefully done and they do not object to photos being taken. There are plenty of other items to look at including pictures which have a story alongside. Some interesting stained glass is also well worth a view. There are staff on hand to help if needed and the optional collection box. It's a fitting end to the whole exhibition.

A really beautiful building. Please be aware that it is a functioning place of worship, visitors are encouraged to join services but you cannot walk around during a service, so if you only want to see it, check service times. The volunteers are very knowledgeable and friendly. There are many layers of history in this place. The stained windows (some v old, some modern) are exquisite. Of course Richard III is interred here and his tomb is worth the visit alone. There is no entry fee, which makes it accessible to people on low income. Visitors are encouraged to make a donation, it's very worth donating to in order to keep it accessible.

Check out the new stained glass window by King Richard III tomb. Look at the top right pane to see a football reference to Leicester City football club winning the Premier league title.

If, like me you haven't been to Leicester for some time, you will be most pleasantly surprised as they have spent a great amount of money sprucing up the town. Everyone has read about the finding of King Richard 111's remains in the Leicester car park. Now you can see his new resting place under Swaledale fossil stone from North Yorkshire. A fitting tribute for the last King of the House of York. I found my visit to this medieval Church most enlightening. BTW- This year Leicester is having it's first Christmas market. I was told that this year they are having their first Christmas Market, so it is a very good time to visit.

Nice cathedral, we went to see the moon exhibition. The giant moon was impressive but would have been better with music and visual display of the phases.
