Although we didn't get a chance to go inside, this is a gorgeous building in a lovely area of Kingston, near the water.

The Dean of the cathedral gave my wife and I a small tour; deeply appreciated her time. The cathedral interior is stunning and lovely.

A traditional but not the least bit stuffy Anglican service with superb music. St. George's is a beautiful church, and the flowers that Sunday were especially lovely. We were greeted warmly by a number of parishioners. Very welcoming.

Friendly greeters and a guide in many languages to take with you as you wander along with very knowledgeable docents made our visit enjoyable and was a peaceful respite from the tour.

St.George’s is a rectangular and stout building whose full extension is only visible from the two side streets along which it is built. The view from the east reveals the elaborate dome and the dynamic of the construction where a large pediment marks the transept area. The opposite side mirrors that pediment and tops the southwest side entrance. The entrance area features a porch enclosed by four massive Doric columns whose bases are sitting directly on low plinths. Their capitals are topped with a plain architrave and frieze, the cornice and pediment are decorated with large dentils. The shafts of the columns are plain and one can see the layers of stone cylinders piled up on one another. These features give the place a sense of entering a temple of God. St.George’s dome is decorated with sixteen Corinthian columns, each separated by an arch and it is topped with a lantern with eight small Corinthian columns, also separated by arches. It dominates the landscape by its imposing classical beauty. A walk to its north side reveals a well-demarked apse with eight stain glass windows. Inside, it's opulence! A visit is well worth your time!

This is a beautiful old church and we were very fortunated to enjoy a free concert inside during our visit. They offer these throughout the summer.

....stay for the music. I stumbled into this church to get out of the heat where I was taken in by the sweeping ceiling and stained glass. Do not rush through the church, it is quite beautiful. Then, as I was leaving after a good half hour or so, I was invited to attend one of the summer lunchtime concerts held every Thursday. I eventually went to three of these - about 40 minutes of music to soothe away the day or prepare for the remains of it. Strongly suggest anyone in Kingston during the summer months to check out St. George's musical menu.

The inside of this church is absolutely beautiful. The main minister is a woman who is very warm and caring. The organ is like no other in Kingston and the organist is amazing. The outside of the church is not that special. i love their special services when the symphony plays. the choir is excellent.
