Westminster Abbey. Such an amazing building filled with about 1000 years of history, housing the bodies of monarchs, matriarchs, writers, generals, princes, etc, with more plaques than fathomable. It's where every coronation since the 1200s has been held, and most royal marriages as well.
Another view. This is the entrance.
On the walk to the Abbey entrance, you can see Big Ben. We also walked past all the different government buildings in the neighborhood, including the pub where members of Parliament go for lunches to get their colleagues drunk enough to vote with them. Across the way from the Tower of London. My first castle. Also, the fantastic sign for the Underground or Tube.
