When you take Westminster Walking Tour of London, this is usually the basic itinerary -
- You will be taken past the Palace of Westminster and Big Ben, both of which hold a significant place in the development of the city.
- You will also pass 10 Downing street - the official office and home of the Prime Minister. It is also the headquarters to the Queen, where the Cabinet meet, as well as being the venue for visiting Heads of foreign Governments and state events.
- Westminster Abbey is also visited as this is one of the most important gothic buildings that this country has.
- You will be able to witness first hand the changing of the guards outside the entrance (with only The monarch being able to enter these gates) of St. James's Palace.
This will not only widen your knowledge of London's historic buildings and what has happened in them, as well as what happens currently but also will help you realize that London isn't just a tourist attraction, but also a place that keeps Britain running smoothly!
