Mars Quest Review
WoW! Mars has come to Gloucester Cathedral & it is stunning! Free trail too. We are always incredibly impressed by Gloucester Cathedral, free to enter – donations welcome.
A stunning building with so much to see, explore, learn & discover.
The incredible Mars is currently suspended from great heights & space sounds gently capturing imaginations throughout. War & Peace – very reflective.
A great & kid friendly free trail, around the Cathedral, the girls loved it. Sticker at the end for completing it.
Lovely cafe & toilets on site too. Friendly staff & a warm welcome
