SIGHTSEEING RECOMMENDATIONS
WESTMINSTER ABBEY
http://www.westminster-abbey.org/home
The Church of St Peter at Westminster, better known as Westminster Abbey, is one of the most
important Gothic buildings in the country, has been the coronation church since 1066 and is the final
resting place of seventeen monarchs. Benedictine monks first came to this site in the tenth century,
establishing a tradition of daily worship which continues today. At its centre is the medieval shrine of
an Anglo-Saxon saint.
THE PALACE OF WESTMINSTER
http://www.parliament.uk/visiting/
The Palace of Westminster, better known today as the Houses of Parliament, is the oldest royal palace
in London, a world heritage site and one of most recognized buildings in the world. Built on the site
of a medieval palace, and possibly a Roman Temple dedicated to Apollo, the palace has been in
continuous use since the first half of the 11th century.
Today the oldest existing part of the Houses of Parliament is Westminster Hall, dating back to the
reign of King William II. Built in 1097, it is the oldest ceremonial hall in Britain and was the largest hall
in Europe. Other historic parts include the 1297 Edward I Chapel of St Mary Undercroft and the Jewel
Tower, built by Edward III in 1366.
The present Gothic palace, re-built in 1854 by Charles Barry, has over 1100 rooms, 100 staircases, 11
courtyards and a 200m riverside terrace used for entertaining.
The most famous part of the building is the Clock Tower, which houses Big Ben. Victoria Tower, the
southern tower, is 102m high and was once the largest and tallest tower in the world. On top is a 15m
flagpole which flies the Union flag when parliament is ‘sitting’.
BIG BEN

The Clock Tower at the Palace of Westminster is probably the most famous clock in the world, a place
from which time is measured. Big Ben is not the 100m tower, but the 13th ‘great’ bell in the tower
which strikes the hour.
With each face nearly 7m wide, the minute hands over 4.2m long and the hour hands weighing 300kg
each, it is the largest four faced chiming clock in the world.
Although the clock was stated on 31st May 1859, Big Ben rang for the 1st time over London a month
later on 11th July.
CHURCHILL WAR ROOMS

The Churchill War Rooms, deep beneath the HM Treasury buildings, was the secret underground
command and control centre used by the British government during the Second World War. Abandoned
in August 1945, the complex of rooms and corridors house the Cabinet War Rooms, which have been
kept as they were left, and the Churchill Museum.
BUCKINGHAM PALACE
https://www.royal.uk/search?tags%5B0%5D=Buckingham%20Palace
Buckingham Palace has served as the official London residence of Britain’s sovereigns since 1837. A
working palace, used by the Queen for numerous events and official receptions, areas of Buckingham
Palace are opened to visitors in the summer. Changing of the Guard, London’s most popular tourist
attraction, takes place on selected days through-out the year.
THE NATIONAL GALLERY
http://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/
The National Gallery in Trafalgar Square was built in 1838 to house the growing national collection of
Art and to be a venue comparable with other national art galleries, such as the Louvre in Paris.
Displaying Western European paintings from the 13th to the 19th century the National Gallery was built
with the aim of showing them freely to people of all social classes. The pictures, most of which used
to belong to private collectors, have been either bought or gifted to the collection.
Originally the building’s design was criticized. It was only one room deep and very cramped. King
William IV called it “a nasty pokey little hole”. Since then, there have been many alterations and
additions with large architectural spaces arranged on a Greek-Cross plan.
