Westminster Abbey

Westminster Abbey is one of the most magnificent place. You can say it as the best architectural masterpiece. Westminster abbey is one of the great attractions in London. Really a magnificent building full of amusing history, but its quite disappointing that taking pictures are not allowed. I am glad I visited such a impressive place.

If you want to get inside the abbey for free, go to an evensong at 5:00 pm. Enjoy the view while you’re listening, though, because the guards are really strict about not letting anyone linger for sightseeing afterwards. I got to sit in Poets’ Corner, right next to Chaucer’s tomb, and I was able to see everything I wanted to on the way out.

It was GREAT!!!

Thanks to my students card I didn’t pay a lot (I really don’t remember how much…) and the audioguide was free!

The audioguide was in every language, and it covered all the Abbey!

I loved the Abbey itself, it was full of History and it was really well mantained :)

I really think that everybody who visits London should go for the Abbey!

The audio guides are free and offered in several languages, so make sure to get one! Learning about what I was looking at really enhanced my visit!

Like others have said, this is an overwhelming place. So much history, so many famous people buried or married here. I wonder if visitor numbers have increased due to the Da Vinci Code effect?

I’d like to revisit this place one day.
