King’s College Chapel

"The Chapel is 88 metres long, 12 metres in span between the piers, and the vault is 24 metres high. The fan vaulting, the undoubted glory of the building, was completed in 3 years between 1512 and 1515. After this, the glaziers could get on with the task of installing the 26 sets of stained glass windows, which took around another 30 years."

The Chapel is so beautiful. By the way, it was so difficult to take pictures inside the chapel as we were not allowed to use flash. Most if the pictures were turned out blurred. These pics are some acceptable ones.
