Flat Stanley inYork

Hiya Boys and girls,

I wanted to show you the pictures of the York Minster and the York Railway station, both of which we got to visit while I was in England.

 It was so cool to see how big the Minster is. In fact, it is the largest 'medieval' (ask your teacher to explain that big word!) Gothic cathedral in all of Northern Europe (and that is very impressive!)

The building is over 500 feet long, is 250 feet wide and the central tower is nearly 200 feet high. It is really awesome to see the inside with all its beautiful stained glass windows. Each window tells a story from the Bible.

Here is another picture. Can you see how tiny the people look?



Can you see how big the Minster is?

This stained glass window is from a different church in York. I thought you might like to see it because the big window in the Minster is being restored at the moment and you can't really see it.

Tomorrow I hope to show you the pictures of the Railway Museum.

Bye for now,

Flat Stanley
