The Buckingham Palace
The Buckingham Palace is located in the City of Westminster and is naturally a must see for tourists and all fans of the royals. This impressive residence of the royal family was one of the biggest highlights of our visit to London.

The Buckingham Palace Guards
We stood at the gate of Buckingham Palace to observe the guards changing their posts at regular intervals.

The Westminster Abbey
Otherwise known as the Collegiate Church of St Peter at Westminster, this is probably the most famous church of England. Traditionally many English monarchs have been coronated and also later buried here.

St. Paul’s Cathedral
The St. Paul’s Cathedral is one of the largest cathedrals of the world. The church is famous for many ceremonies including the wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana in 1981 and the Golden Jubilee of Queen Elisabeth in 2002. Many famous personalities are also buried here. While we were there a wedding had just taken place and all of the guests had been chatting in the gardens behind the cathedral.

The Double Decker Busses
The double decker bus is famous for London and are also a great alternative as public transportation when you need to get from point “a” to point “b” in London. Because of its height, it is a great way to see the city, too.
