Start your first day of sightseeing in London with one of the city's most recognizable landmarks. Buckingham Palace<\/strong>, the official London residence of the British monarch. It is a must-see on any visit to the capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The biggest attraction here is changing of the guard<\/strong> - A spectacular ceremony involving guardsmen in red uniforms and distinctive bearskin caps. It is usually held approximately 11:00 a.m.<\/strong> (But it's worth checking the schedule before visiting - it doesn't take place every day). To see everything properly, it is best to come a minimum of 30 minutes in advance<\/strong> And set up by the palace fence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The palace itself can be admired from the outside - going inside is only possible at certain times of the year. It is also worth taking a look at the statue of Queen Victoria<\/strong> Standing opposite the main gate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

2\ufe0f\u20e3 A walk through St. James's Park<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After watching the changing of the guard, it is worth going through the St. James's Park<\/strong> - The oldest royal park in London and one of the most picturesque. It's the perfect place to relax for a while after the morning crowds outside the palace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wide avenues, a picturesque lake overlooking the London Eye<\/strong> and numerous species of birds (including the famous pelicans!) make a walk here a real pleasure. In the center of the park is a small cafe where you can enjoy a cup of coffee or a quick breakfast outdoors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walking through the park in an easterly direction will take you directly to the next key points of the tour - the following. Westminster Abbey<\/strong> i Big Ben<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upon exiting St. James's Park you find yourself directly under the majestic walls of the Westminster Abbey<\/strong> - one of the most important temples in Britain and all of Europe. It is here that since 1066 the coronations of British monarchs<\/strong>, as well as state ceremonies, weddings and funerals. The interior of the abbey impresses gothic architecture<\/strong>, sculptures, stained glass windows and richly decorated chapels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visitors are particularly impressed by the Poets' Corner.<\/strong>, where they rest, among others. Chaucer<\/strong>, Dickens<\/strong> whether Tennyson<\/strong>, and tombstones of prominent scientists, such as Isaac Newton<\/strong> i Charles Darwin<\/strong>. It's worth booking tickets in advance via the internet<\/strong>, to avoid long waits - the place attracts tourists from all over the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For many, it's the highlight of the entire tour - the place where Britain's history lives and breathes<\/strong> In every detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just a few steps from the abbey grows before you Big Ben<\/strong> - the most recognizable clock tower in Britain, and perhaps the world. Although technically the name Big Ben<\/strong> refers to bell<\/strong> inside, rather than to the tower, it is under this name that the entire structure is known. Officially, the tower is called Elizabeth Tower<\/strong>, in honor of Queen Elizabeth II.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tower is particularly impressive when beats the full hour<\/strong> - The powerful sound of the bell carries through the neighborhood and is one of London's most distinctive \"sonic landmarks.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Right next door stretches the massive and beautifully decorated Palace of Westminster<\/strong>, which is the headquarters of British Parliament (Houses of Parliament)<\/strong>. The building delights neo-gothic architecture<\/strong> and facade details. Although the interiors are available for touring only on selected dates, the very view from the outside - especially from the side of the Westminster Bridge<\/strong> or the other bank of the Thames - is very impressive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It's a place that perfectly demonstrates how London connects political power, tradition and aesthetics<\/strong> - In one monumental painting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
