"Westminster Abbey, one of the most historic religious buildings in London, has held countless coronation ceremonies over the past millennium and is a popular London attraction in its own right."
"Another UNESCO World Heritage site, this spectacular gothic church dates back to 1066. Located just a three-minute walk from Westminster tube station, this magnificent church has hosted every royal coronation since its creation and witnessed 16 royal weddings, including that of Prince William and Kate Middleton. Everyone is welcome to join a daily service, free of charge. These services usually run five times a day and are a great way to see the church in action. If you’d prefer to explore the abbey on your own time, visitors are welcome between 09:30 AM and 3:30 PM for a fee." - MATADOR_NETWORK
