Photos Home Blackstone EEP ... United Kingdom England, March 1998 Here are a number of photographs I took while sightseeing in the United Kingdom in March 1998. This collection comprises most of them; I should probably end up posting a few more from Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle, but it's anyone's guess as to when I shall do so. Westminster Westminster Abbey was built almost exactly 900 years ago. One wonders at how it was accomplished. I think that the Abbey is the most beautiful piece of architecture that I've ever seen. Standing right in front of the Abbey, I took this picture looking up at the twin towers. The side of the Abbey is just as gorgeous as the front. So is the back. And so are the details. Especially these details. Depicted here are Jesus, the Twelve, and various angels, saints, and personified arts and sciences. Here's a close-up of one of the main towers. Click here to Super-Size it. The classic picture of Parliament from across the Thames , also available in extra-large The House of Lords. St. Stephen's Bell Tower , which contains the bell known as "Big Ben." Oxford The Bridge of Sighs is modeled after an arch of the same name in Venice.

Snowdonia is the second-largest national park in Britain as well as being home to the highest mountain in the country south of the Scottish Highlands. At 1085m, Mt Snowdon provided the training ground for the climbers who made the first successful attempt on Mt Everest and today attracts thousands of aspiring climbers each year. As well as the spectacular mountains, the park boasts a wide variety of other natural features – forests, glacial valleys, moorlands, waterfalls and an attractive coastline. Pembrokeshire Coast The Pembrokeshire Coast National Park is one of the smallest National Parks in England and Wales. Its coastline is one of the most beautiful in Europe boasting high cliffs, long open beaches, sheltered coves and harbors, mud flats and dunes. Predominantly coastal, the park includes several offshore islands, the largest of which are Skomer, Skokholm, Ramsey, Grasholm and Caldey. Each of the islands are major attractions because of their wildlife and are small worlds waiting to be discovered. Attractions within the park include the St. Davids Visitor Centre. Situated within walking distance of St Davids, it is an ideal starting point for a visit to St David’s town. The magnificent castle at Carew has a history spanning 2000 years. Castell Henllys is a Scheduled Ancient Monument and one of many prehistoric promontory forts in the National Park dating to around 600BC.

I would urge anyone to experience this historical city as it truly is magnificent. All previous examples of Norman architecture such as ELY cathedral in Cambridgeshire, have been put to shame by this cathedral. At night the views from across the river are breathtaking and, following on from Sir Walter Scott: 'This view is unsurpassed in England'. Toops (ENGLAND) I really enjoyed my visit to Durham Castle and Cathedral. I took a tour of the Castle and i found the history fascinating. The Cathedral was really impressive and i climbed to the top of the tower to get a good view of Durham city. Everywhere I went in Durham, i never lost sight of the castle and cathedral. they dominate the city and are a really historical background.

A castle is a fortified building whose primary purpose is to provide security or defend a territory from one's enemies. A palace, in contrast, is a building whose primary function is that of a luxurious and often eccentric abode. Palaces predate castles by several centuries, with their first appearance being in the Egyptian and Middle Eastern civilizations of ancient history. Although castles are no longer recognized as a means of security from foes, palaces will continue to be built as long as there are people who can afford them. The links included herein relate to castles and palaces.
