You could spend an entire vacation in the British Museum and still not see it all. Even if you just see the Elgin Marbles and the Rosetta Stone, it's worth the trip.

Nothing to dislike. London's got it right now. All the improvements for hosting the 2012 Olympics shows. Love the walk along the Thames. Easy access to everything including the loo's(need 30 pence to use and they are real clean).
A birthday treat for my daughter. Really interesting, but she was disappointed that no photographs could be taken inside. I no security is very important but a few photographs would not do any harm. Tour took around one and half hours but best very quickly as it was so interesting.
This is more than just a parliament building...it's history. Line up and get past security and be welcomed into a very worthwhile visit. The best part is the hall, the oldest part of the building, and very inspiring. If parliament is in session it is very entertaining!
My view of this is very simple, stunning building, so much detail. You can see that this building was originally made to govern the most important empire on earth (for its time). Well worth a visit!!!!!!!
We visited in the hope we would see or get to meet an MP. Fat chance! But we looked around at this magnificent building, bought a few trinkets and had tea in the cafe. Good stuff!
We went for one of the tours round Westminster. It was fabulous, our guide was called Alan and he really knew his stuff. He had been working there for 20 years. The tour lasted about 1.5 hrs and there was a lot of walking to be done. Alan had a great sence of humor and made the history interesting.
There...

Could not go inside the building but it's beautiful architecture..... Must visit due if you want to get few clicks of your with Big Ben in the background ...... Live protests across the road add to the aura .....
She is the Mother of Parliaments - and full of eccentricities.
If you are British, you can ask your local MP to make the arrangements for free, but anyone can pay to tour the buildings that date back in places to 1099.
The tour takes in both Houses of Parliament (always providing the Lords and the MPs are not sitting)....

The Houses of Parliament are a Gothic Revival Masterpiece. Great History and a working seat of government. Very cool.
