Westminster
see map E6
Westminster is an area of Central London, within
the City of Westminster. It lies on the north bank of the
River Thames. It has a large concentration of London's
historic and prestigious landmarks and visitor attractions,
including Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey.
The name Westminster was the ancient description
for the area around Westminster Abbey – the West Minster, or monastery church, that gave the area its name
– which has been the seat of the government of England (and later the British government) for almost 1,000
years. Westminster is the location of the Palace of Westminster, which houses the Parliament of the United
Kingdom.
Big Ben is the nickname for the great bell of the clock at the north end of the Palace of Westminster
and is often extended to refer to the clock or the clock tower as well. Big Ben is the largest four-faced
chiming clock and the third-tallest free-standing clock tower in the world. It celebrated its 150th anniversary
in May 2009. The bell was named in honour of Sir Benjamin Hall, (British civil engineer and member of
Parliament) and his name is inscribed on it.
10 Downing Street, colloquially known in the United Kingdom as "Number 10", is the headquarters
of Her Majesty's Government and the official residence and office the Prime Minister.
Buckingham Palace
see map E 5-6
Buckingham Palace is the official London residence of the
British monarch located in the City of Westminster.
Originally known as Buckingham House, it was a large
townhouse in the 18th. During the 19th century it was enlarged,
principally by architects John Nash and Edward Bore, forming three
wings around a central courtyard. Buckingham Palace finally became
the official royal palace of the British monarch on the accession of
Queen Victoria in 1837.The palace, like Windsor Castle, is owned by the British state. It is not the monarch's
personal property. The Buckingham Palace Garden is the largest private garden in London.
Changing the Guard or Guard Mounting is the process involving a new guard exchanging
duty with the old guard. The Guard which mounts at Buckingham Palace is called The Queen’s Guard and is
divided into two Detachments: the Buckingham Palace Detachment (which is responsible for guarding
Buckingham Palace), and the St. James’s Palace Detachment, (which guards St. James’s Palace).
At Horse Guards Arch, Changing the Guard takes place daily at 11.00 am (10.00 am on
Sundays) and lasts about half an hour; it is normally held on Horse Guards Parade by the arch of Horse
Guards Building.
Along the Thames:
The Globe Theatre was built in 1599 by Shakespeare's company, and was destroyed by fire on 29 June
1613. A modern reconstruction of the Globe, named "Shakespeare Globe", opened in 1997 approximately
750 feet (230 m) from the site of the original theatre
The London Millennium Footbridge is a pedestrian-only steel suspension bridge crossing the River
Thames, linking Bankside with the City. It opened in June 2000. It allows people to go from Tate
Modern to Saint Paul’s cathedral
Tate Modern is Britain's national gallery of international modern art. It is the most-visited modern
art gallery in the world, with around 4.7 million visitors per year. It is based in a former power station.

Andy Wharol (pop art) / Roy Lichtenstein (pop art) / Picasso (cubism)
