    Love the view from the river side. Snap Big Ben. Dislike the protest and camp right front of the main gate.

    Lovely view from the riverside. If you have the time, book a guided tour through the hall and the parliament, a great experience!

    This is the oldest part of Westminster Palace, built for William II in 1097. This was the meeting place for medieval parliaments and courts, and is where Charles I was put on trial in 1649.

    16 October: on this night in 1834, the medieval Palace of Westminster caught fire. As the building burned, Lord Althorp cried out: 'Damn the House, let it blaze away; but save, oh save the Hall.'

    When the monarchy was restored in 1660, Charles II had Oliver Cromwell’s body dug up, hanged and beheaded. For many years the head sat on a spike on the roof of Westminster Hall.

    This hall is where modern democracy was born and also where William Wallace, King Charles I and Guy Fawkes were tried.

    Uno de los monumentos más reprentativos de Londres, imposible ir a visitar la ciudad y pasarlo por alto

    Vale la pena sentarse del otro lado del río a admirar, impresionante panorama.

    Increíble el trabajo de mantenimiento que hacen para conservar un edificio tan activo a lo largo de tantos años.
