Wells Cathedral

Wells Cathedral, a Church of England cathedral in Wells, Somerset, England was built between 1175 and 1490. It has been described as “the most poetic of the English Cathedrals”. Although the early guided tour wasn't available the day we visited, we poked around on our own and were amazed at the beauty of the cathedral, the choir and the numerous chapels.
