While I am visiting England I would like to go see 'Big Ben', Big Ben is the big clock tower at the Houses of Parliament in central London. The clock tower got the name 'Big Ben' because the largest bell inside the tower was nicknamed that, the bells original name was the Great bell. The tower is 96 meters high, only UK residents are allowed to climb the 400 steps to the top. I just want to go to see it, it wouldn't bother me that I couldn't go up the tower.
Also when I'm in London I would really like to go see Buckingham Palace. The palace is the Queen's official residence in England. It was built in 1705 for the Duke of Buckingham. The palace will not be open to tourists during the time I will be in England but I would be quite satisfied by just seeing the outside. While at the palace I would like to watch the Changing the Guard ceremony, it is free to watch and is about 45 minutes long.
While I am in England on vacation I would really like to go see the
Stonehenge, I want to see it because I have seen many pictures of it and
it looks very interesting. The Stonehenge is one of the most important
prehistoric monument in all of Britain. It is estimated that the
construction of it took more than 30 million hours of labour. It was
finished about 3500 years ago. The cost to go is 7.50 pounds, which
works out to be around 12 dollars. This is a biophysical attraction.
