Queen Elizabeth and the royal family inside the
palace.

The Houses of Parliament
Tourists in London always want to
visit Westminster and see Big Ben. They
want to see the clock in its tower and to
hear the bells. Big Ben is one of the most
famous clocks in the world. Big Ben is really
a bell. You hear it every hour. It is a big bell.
It weighs 13,720 kilograms.
It has a deep tone and you can hear it on the
radio: “This is the BBC. The time is six
o’clock.” And then you hear the deep boom of
Big Ben six times.

Westminster Abbey is a symbol of
English tradition. The coronation of all
kings takes place here. Many of them are
buried within the Abbey. It’s a royal
church. The legend says that
Westminster Abbey was founded by St
Peter himself. We know that
Westminster Abbey was built by King
Edward in 1065. Some famous English
people are also buried here. Here you

and queens and other famous people.
The Tower of London
The Tower of London is a very old building. It
is nine hundred years old. In the early days of
England the English kings lived in the Tower.
Then it was a prison where many people died.
Black ravens had much food near the walls оf
the Tower in those days. Black ravens live
outside the Tower now. The English people like
them very much. Now it’s a museum housing
the National Collection of Armour and Royal
Regalia. Many tourists from other countries
come to see it. They see the dark stone halls
with small windows and thick doors. The
Tower is still guarded by the famous
Beefeaters who wear a traditional Sixteenth
century uniform.
