As the sun dips below the horizon, a golden glow washes over Durham City, illuminating its crown jewel – the magnificent Durham Cathedral. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the cathedral has stood as a beacon of faith and architectural brilliance since the late 11th century. This Norman masterpiece dominates the skyline, flanked by the River Wear and the historic streets of this ancient city.
Captured in the warm embrace of twilight, this high-resolution aerial image reveals the cathedral bathed in sunset hues, its intricate towers and stonework glowing against the rolling landscape of County Durham. The railway viaduct in the distance and the rooftops nestled among trees add depth and context to a truly timeless scene.
