Among the main attractions in Truro, the city is famous for the city Cathedral. The huge cathedral is built in the Gothic revival style.
The spire of this cathedral rises to a height of 76 meters, which is the highest in the city. The giant cathedral took almost 30 years to finish, work began in 1880 and finished in 1910. It is a paradise for shopping enthusiasts, as it has a large number of shops.
There are an enormous number of markets, specialty shops and chain stores. These shops together represent the historic tradition of the town when it was a market town.
Of these, the Pannier Market is the largest and the most famous market in the town.
It houses a variety of shops, restaurants, cafes and bistros. The Royal Cornwall Museum is a leading museum and the oldest in the county.
The museum exhibits artefacts belonging to Cornish Culture. These objects include an unwrapped mummy, minerals and objects that display Cornwall's culture.
