Also known as Westminster Abbey, it is the Royal Academy of England and one of the most beautiful churches in Europe.


After the completion of Westminster Abbey, it became the venue for the coronation ceremony of the British King. It is a magnificent Gothic church, which occupies a pivotal position not only in the history of world architecture, but also in the long history of Britain in the past nine centuries. Many members of the British royal family, politicians, religious celebrities and famous poets are buried here. The tomb, as a place of refuge for the dead, has often been replaced in many cultures and civilizations by a cemetery or a memorial, or sometimes both.
