St Paul's Cathedral played host to an interfaith event on Tuesday to mark Ramadan.
Bishop of London Rt Rev Sarah Mullally and the Mayor of London Sadiq Khan welcomed a host of young people from different religions ahead of an Iftar where Muslims break their fast.
Speaking to Premier at the event, Mr Khan said: "I want to pay huge tribute to the Bishop of London and everyone at St Paul's Cathedral for opening up this really special cathedral and spiritual home of many Londoners.
"As a city, we don't just tolerate difference, but we respect it, celebrate it and we embrace it."
"Those of us that believe in pluaralism and believe the fact that we have more in common than that which divides us and separates us.
"The message from London is that we are going to put down bridges rather than build walls."
The Naz Legacy Foundation in partnership with The Randeree Charitable Foundation and Pears Foundation presented the annual cross faith event.
Over one hundred young Londoners from different faiths, or none, come together to discuss their faith and how to bring different communities in London together within a spirit of community, unity and public service.
Each year it is held in a different religious location across London and this year for the first time it was at St Paul's Cathedral.

Waiting for the Muslims to let Christians celebrate Christmas at Mecca.
It’s the Jihad Moon again already?
What’s the royal bugout plan? It can’t be that far off.
What can possibly go wrong?
Sick
They obviously do not understand Ramadan, they celebrate their own slaughter.
Perhaps they should study Christianity instead of social justice.
So sad, so stupid. Passive submission to Allah.
When do they have elections? It seems like the towel head Khan has been mayor forever.
Anyone getting blown up yet?
Why is the Christian denomination that openly and adamantly opposed the Reformers caving in to Islam and homosexuality?

Sick and disgusting
How do ya have interfaith with a religion that commands genocide against the rest of mankind?
What denomination? This is the Church of England. A lady bishop, at that.
The UK has surrendered to the Muzzies, they are so screwed. I’m guessing that in about 20 years, they will be pitching gays off the top of Big Ben.
Big Ben will be reset to Mecca time.
“...The UK has surrendered to the Muzzies, they are so screwed.....”
Yep. What Hitler and the Nazis couldn’t do in WWII, the moslems have done today. The UK has no idea the “trojan horse” they’ve allowed to pass thru their gates. They’ll find out soon enough.
Meanwhile, the former Warsaw Pact countries see what’s happening and want no part of it.
