Westminster Abbey

The Abbey is a Church of England, and its lure to tourists is just how much history is embedded within it. The final resting place of England's finest including, Darwin, Dickens, Queen Elizabeth I, and personal favorite Mary Queen of Scotts. The abbey has with stood the tests of time in England, through Henry the 8th to the blitzes, comprised of several different styles of quintessential English architecture. A few point of further interest, this is where all the kings and queens have been ordained, and the prince will be married. One of the more sentimental aspects was the grave for the unknown British solider, the only grave you cannot walk on in the church.
