#westminsterpalace — Public Fediverse posts

Last photo in London. (Main character is going to Bristol. Not sure I have any "interesting" photos of Bristol.)

So the Jewel Tower, originally part of the Palace of Westminster. It was built in the 14th for the king to store his treasures in. Then the palace burnt down and the story got Tudor and I switched off. Admittedly, I wasn't that switched on to start with. (A girl can only look at so many museums, and I'd reached that point about 2 weeks earlier.)

This is several years old but features a British red phone box which has been one of my favorite subjects going back to basically the beginning. This is shown adjacent to the clock tower known colloquially as "Big Ben" although the tower is actually named for the late Queen Elizabeth II.

My family and I visited London and surround area several years ago. That trip is one of our favorite memories. This image of the London skyline at night always reminds me of the fun we had. A starry sky illuminates London's landmark buildings - Big Ben, Westminster Palace and the Westminster Bridge in the River Thames.
