Это огромное сооружение на берегу реки Темзы в Вестминстерском районе Лондона. Здание соединяется с Трафальгарской площадью и Уайтхолл-стрит. Первоначально, с 1529, дворец был резиденцией английских монархов. После пожара в 1834 году, здание было полностью перестроено, и теперь оно служит местом заседания британского парламента. В здании есть около 1200 комнат, 100 лестниц, и холлов в 5 километров. Самая большая и старинная часть здания называется Вестминстер-холл. Он был построен в 1097 году и занимает площадь 1800 квадратных километров. Эта комната когда-то служила местом заседания английского Верховного суда. Многие известные люди были приговорены к смерти здесь, среди них, Гай Фокс, Томас Мур, Карла I и многие другие. Вестминстерский дворец имеет несколько высоких башен. Самой известной из всех является Биг-Бен. Все знают, что это самые большие в мире часы, и что это символ Великобритании. Другая известная башня – это Башня Виктории. Она немного выше, чем Биг-Бен.
