4 Must-See Churches in Bristol, England

Bristol is home to a lot of attractions. From ships to suspension bridges, its easy to get overwhelmed by the amount to see in this vibrant city. One of my favorite things to do in any new city I visit is spend time in its churches. Churches can tell you a lot about the city's history: the way the city was once laid out, the popular architecture of the time, even how large the city was hundreds of years ago!
