Itinerary
1
Whitehall Palace
Banqueting House is the most impressive remaining building of the ancient Palace of Whitehall. The architect was Inigo Jones, who built it for King James I in the Palladian style in the early 1600s.
2
Royal Air Force Memorial
The Royal Air Force Memorial commemorates the air-force men and women who lost their lives in World War 1. You can read the RAF motto at the top - Per ardua ad astra, meaning 'through struggle to the stars'.
3
Westminster Bridge
The original Westminster Bridge was opened in 1753. Until that time, London Bridge was the only way of crossing the Thames, except for the many ferries.
4
Parliament Square
You will see statues of some famous people at Parliament Square. On the corner of the square is a statue of Winston Churchill, who led Britain in the Second World War.
5
Jewel Tower
This tower was built in 1365 by Henry Yevele, who also reconstructed Westminster Hall. It is made of Kentish Ragstone and has three storeys. It used to be surrounded by a moat where fish could be caught.
6
Lambeth Palace
Lambeth Palace is the London home of the Archbishops of Canterbury. Archbishop Baldwin took over the manor in the 1200s, when he realised it was essential to have ready access to the monarch.
7
Westminster Abbey
This walk covers the great palaces of the monarchs and the Archbishop of Canterbury.
