Virtual London Walking Tour: Eight Buildings, Eight Faiths

New arrivals leave their imprint on a city – nowhere more so than in London where Jews, Muslims, Roman Catholics, Hindus, Methodists, Sikhs, Buddhists and the Greek Orthodox church have each added their own layer.

Join Westminster guide Charlie Forman for a virtual walk incorporating their remarkable signature buildings. Here are eight faith communities which can each point to a special place they built, not on first arrival, but when numbers, wealth and self-confidence had grown and they had established themselves for the long term.

So we have a synagogue, a chapel, a gurdwara, a monastery, a couple of cathedrals, a temple and a mosque, permanent markers of the highest quality. Their differences stretch across cultures and 300 hundred years of persecutions and economic crises. But their similarities are also striking
