เวสต์มินสเตอร์แอบบีย์ (Westminster Abbey)

Westminster Abbey is considered one of the most important places in England. It has now been designated as a royal monastery. For those who visit England, Got recommends that you do not miss it because it is very beautiful (very beautiful) and valuable with stories about the history of the British royal family for more than 1,000 years since 960, from coronations, weddings, and funerals. It can be seen that Westminster Abbey is related to the royal family in every aspect. Westminster Abbey was actually built in 960 by Benedictine monks for daily religious ceremonies until 1245 when King Henry III built Westminster Abbey in the grandest Gothic style at that time. It was built over the original site and was dedicated as a memorial to Edward the Confessor, and is the burial place for himself. Westminster Abbey has hosted the coronations of 38 English monarchs and queens, the most recent being William I in 1066 and Queen Elizabeth II on 2 June 1953. The site has also been buried as many as 18 monarchs and held the funeral of Princess Diana. In all, some of the country's most famous and important figures have been cremated and buried here. Including more than 3,000 people who are memorialized here, including Isaac Newton, Stephen Hawking, Nelson Mandela and Charles Darwin. The interior of the abbey is very large. There is a route for us to follow. What I want you to see is the architecture, such as glass, stone columns and carved roofs. Their work is very beautiful and detailed. And what you can't miss are the statues, the royal tombs and memorials of important people. When we walked in, they gave out Audio Guides so that we could listen to the stories along the way. So don't worry about not understanding anything, unless we can't understand English. #historicculture#culturalattractions
