"London is the capital city of England and the United Kingdom, famous for its history, architecture, and cultural institutions." - Tess Murphy and Rachel Chang
"A historic city with a modern twist, famous for its landmarks, cultural institutions, and diverse population."
"After visiting the royal palaces, get up to date with the more modern British governing system. Located just a short stroll from Westminster Abbey, the Palace of Westminster is a beautiful 19th-century building that’s home to the two Houses of Parliament: the House of Commons and the House of Lords. Take an audio or guided tour of the Royal Gallery, Lords Chamber, Members Lobby, and Commons Chamber to understand. Tours are available every Saturday and on weekdays when parliament is not in session. Walk in the footsteps of the country’s most famous leaders and discover the important proceedings that take place here. Attached to the building is the iconic Big Ben clock, currently under renovation. For the best views of the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, stand on Westminster Bridge." - MATADOR_NETWORK
"Beautiful Big Ben This iconic landmark in London is popular for a reason...it's breathtaking! Did you know that Big Ben is the name of the bell inside the tower, not the clock? While you are there, check out the Houses of Parliament (if they are in session). Afterwards, stroll across the lovely bridge and rise the London Eye! By Nichole Pitts"
