Ely Cathedral as you've stated is amazing,and next door to it Oliver Cromwell's old house.
Ely is a great place to Live.

It is indeed.

The Cathedral in Lichfield is jaw droppingly beautiful as is the one in York, my favourite though is in Cologne.

[Whitestone]

Seville is a great city with a historic cathedral, the Alcazar, some fantastic tapas bars and it's very sunny ☀️ most of the year.

[Southcoastffc]

Cologne cathedra is remarkable.  All around it was bombed heavily during WWII but the cathedral somehow untouched.   My favourite uk cathedral city is Durham, and city worldwide is Montpellier.

Yes. Liverpool has rich pickings for cathedral fanciers. The neo-Gothic Anglican job is, arguably, the finest building erected in England in the 20th century. Majestic and beautifully detailed.
At the other end of Hope Street 'Paddy's Wigwam' attracted a deal of criticism for its rather gimicky 60s flash. It still catches the eye today, particularly now it's been cleaned up. The interior is quite breathtaking. I'm not religious but it rather grabbed me. It's a triumph of use of space.
Down by the pierhead, in the Museum of Liverpool, is what might have been. There can be found a gigantic model of the Catholic cathedral Lutyens designed. It's not difficult to see from this that it would have been probably the most magnificent building in the land. When the groundwork had been done the Hierarchy realised they couldn't squeeze another penny from the impoverished masses who were being asked to pay for it.

I visited Paris a couple of weeks ago - my first time there not work related, so managed to see most of the sights.

Notre Dame was incredible, even more so considering the terrible fire damage it suffered a few years ago. The restoration work they've carried out is amazing. It's well worth a visit, as is Paris itself. A fantastic city.

Agree Seville is a great city as is the Cathedral where Christopher Columbus's remains are buried.

Have visited a number of Cathedral's in various cities and some notable ones were Rome with the Vatican, Paris and Notre - Dame,Santiago da Compostela Cathedral and Barcelona's Sagrada Familia.
Though not a Cathedral Porto's Church of Saint Francis is amazing and is known as the 'gold church' as its whole interior is completely  covered in gold leaf.
Porto is fantastic too.

The Metropolitan Cathederal in Mexico City is a wonderful building in a delightfully crazy city. I'm sure the England fans will enjoy the place win or lose.

Lincoln's a lovely place to visit and has an amazing cathedral if you haven't been there yet.

I can recommend it, I live there.

[Lester Burnham]

Strasbourg, Bruges, St. Augustine FL (oldest US city),
Vancouver BC. (Vancouver Island), any city in Alaska.

[iansthailand]

I am obviously biased but Bangkok is brilliant and has the best 2nd hand bookshop. Bruges and Paris rank highly. Shenyang is good. London, what more can be said about it.

As far as Cities go,the wife and I visited Edinburgh two years ago.
The centre ranks with anything,Princes Street a mile long lots of great shops and cafes one side,then the other side of the road you have the beautiful floral gardens,and of course the Castle towering above it all.
I can understand why the Maestro retired to there.

[ffcne]

Wells Cathedral in Somerset  very nice as well.
English city .Really like Bristol.

[ron]

York?

[Holders]

I'm not into cities. I had to go into Exeter last night and it was difficult to park. Now there's a place that was wrecked by the Luftwaffe, though a few pleasant fragments survive.

As to favourite cities, in UK York and Lincoln are nice but I'd pick Salzburg, Prague and Munich as favourites. Planning to visit Vienna in the autumn which I expect to eclipse all of them.

The Metropolitan Cathederal in Mexico City is a wonderful building in a delightfully crazy city. I'm sure the England fans will enjoy the place win or lose.

I certainly enjoyed it 40 years ago in 1986 at the World Cup.
Stayed down there for a couple of months after it finished after meeting a lovely lass.
