London | Houses of Parliament with Victoria Tower

WI_uke038.jpg

View from Victoria Tower Gardens in northern direction to the Victoria Tower. The Palace of Westminster was constructed from 1840 to 1870 in the Gothic Revival style after the medieval palace had been destroyed by a fire in 1834. It hosts both houses of the Parliament of the United Kingdom and is therefore widely known as Houses of Parliament.
