I live in this area and haven't seen anyone climbing up the dome once! It was already opened before Olympics. Not very popular even with the tourists. Not sure how much it costs, but I think it's better to take cable car, which is just few steps away. And the views are better. Photos are very nice.

Some of these press releases are truly "over the top". This type of project is not new, for example take a look at the roof walk on the tensile roof of the Munich Olympic stadium. It was opened a few years ago and you dont need silly suits to climb on it. <a href="http://www.olympiapark.de/en/home/tours-sightseeing/guided-tours/roof-climb/" rel="nofollow">http://www.olympiapark.de/en/home/tours-sightseei...</a> “Groundbreaking roof walk project”….

The Dome is in the heart of a largely uninteresting area, away from the main city, and at a dizzying height of 53m you'd get a better view by just walking to the top of Primrose Hill (78m high, and better views). Pay up, tick it off. Amazing architecture aside, this whole project seems so pointless, other than as a contrived bucket list item for tourists to (pay for) and tick off.
