A Gothic Revival Anglican cathedral completed in 1847, the first such cathedral in Asia, with Burne-Jones stained-glass windows.

St. Paul's Cathedral stands on the east side of the Victoria Memorial. Completed in 1847, it was the first newly built Anglican cathedral outside Britain, and its bell tower was rebuilt after the 1934 earthquake. The west window features stained glass designed by Pre-Raphaelite painter Edward Burne-Jones, and there is also a Florentine-style altarpiece. It is open roughly 9:00 to 12:00 and 15:00 to 18:00. Admission is free, photography is not allowed inside, and it can be visited together with the Victoria Memorial.
