Old St. Pauls on fire, from The Great Fire of London #thegreatfire #childrensbooks #illustration #greatfire350 #350thanniversary

The inside of the Monument to the Great Fire of London in 1666. It still to this date, the tallest freestanding column in the world. All 311 steps make it definitely feel like it, and it?s quite dizzying not only as the pictures show, but also due to the feeling of your heart about to burst about 1/4 of the way up. I couldn?t even count how many loops it goes around. This is the way down... #london #travel #themonument #thegreatfire #somanysteps #arewethereyet #seriouslyarewethereyet #spiral #place #people
