On May 21, I took my parents to visit the British Museum. The tour guide was enthusiastic and professional. If I didn&#39;t have a tour guide, I might have finished the tour in half an hour. The main reason was that I didn&#39;t learn history and geography well. With the guide&#39;s explanation, the three hours passed very quickly. This is my second time to book Ctrip&#39;s tour guide service to visit the British Museum. I still feel unsatisfied. The first time I came, I also booked Ctrip&#39;s tour guide service, which was very good.

🏰Westminster Abbey is really amazing!

📍It is located in the center of London, close to the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben. This church is an outstanding representative of British Gothic architecture, with towering spires, exquisite carvings and gorgeous stained glass windows. Every detail shows unparalleled artistic charm.

Walking into the church, it seems to travel through time and space. This is the holy place for the coronation of the British royal family and has witnessed countless important moments in history. At the same time, it is also the resting place of many celebrities. Great figures such as Newton, Darwin, and Dickens are buried here, which makes people respect their contributions.
Walking through it, you can feel the solemnity of religion and appreciate the profound historical and cultural heritage. The Henry VII Chapel in the church is even more exquisite, with a fan-shaped dome roof and dense carvings, like a fairyland. Whether you are an architecture enthusiast or a history and culture fan, Westminster Abbey is definitely worth a visit. I believe you will be deeply impressed by its charm like me.

💕Highly recommended to everyone! 💕

London Eye (The London Eye), full name British Airways London Eye, located on the banks of the Thames in London, UK, is the world&#39;s first and largest viewing Ferris wheel as of 2005, and is one of London&#39;s landmarks and famous tourist attractions.

Windsor Castle

The Queen&#39;s favorite palace is very luxurious inside, but you are not allowed to take photos, you can only take photos outside. When I entered, I took a photo but was stopped by the staff. Knowing the daily life of the royal family, Windsor Castle is generally very quiet.
