华丽辉煌的威斯敏斯特宫是英国议会两院 - 下议院和上议院的所在地。
宫殿的历史可以追溯到1097年,当时建造了威斯敏斯特大厅最古老的部分。当时它曾被用作英格兰国王的主要居所。在16世纪,它被大火烧毁,之后,它成为英国议会和皇家法院的所在地。 1834年,这座建筑群又一次被火烧毁,唯一原始的建筑物是威斯敏斯特大厅(Westminster Hall),圣斯蒂芬修道院(Cloisters of St Stephen's),圣玛丽安德克罗夫特教堂(Chapel of St Mary Undercroft)和宝石塔(Jewel Tower)。
之后的重建由查尔斯﹒巴里(Charles Barry)主持,他重新设计了如今的哥特式复兴风格的宫殿。该建筑是新哥特式建筑的杰出典范,于1987年被列为联合国教科文组织世界遗产。
除了常规的语音导览和导游外(多种语言),还提供专为儿童设计的特别观光项目(仅限英语),所以带上您的家人们一起来吧。
由于这是一个标志性的伦敦景象,你可能还记得宫殿出现在许多电影和电视剧中,例如《V字仇杀队》(V for Vendetta)或《神探夏洛克》(Sherlock)。
