Kings College Chapel Cambridge

The iconic building in Cambridge is the chapel at Kings College. "Chapel" is a crazy word for this amazing place. We have gone several times to choral evensong inside the chapel, and unfortunately they don't allow photos during worship. The ceiling has some of the most beautiful fan vaulting I've ever seen. (Click here to see the ceiling.) The chapel was completed in 1515, but the windows were added later. Here are some photos from the back side, which is the best view, and tour busses cluster there for the view. We often ride our bicycles along there, so we've taken photos of it at many different times of day. On the other side of the chapel is downtown Cambridge.
