Parliement Square

Parliament Square (prevedeno Parlamentarni trg) je srce londonskog Westminstera, omeđen Big Benom, Westminsterskom palačom i Westminsterskom opatijom.

Po čitavom trgu postavljene su skulpture poznatih britanskih i svjetskih državnika, među ostalima Winstona Churchilla i Abrahama Lincolna.

Historija

Zgrade parlamenta nalaze se tu od 1016. kada je kralj Knut Veliki sagradio palaču, koju su nakon njega često obnavljali i dograđivali. Ona je izgorjela u požaru 1834., pa je arhitekt Charles Barry podigao današnju palaču Parlamenta Ujedinjenog Kraljevstva u neogotičkom stilu.

Najstariji preživjeli dio starog zdanja je - Westminster Hall - koji je sve do sredine 19. vijeka bio sjedište najvišeg suda u zemlji.

Formerly a warren of shops, slum dwellings and alleyways, and half a millennia before that an island. Cleared in the 19th century and on its way to what we know today.

Architecture from the Elizabeth Tower, Palace of Westminster, Portcullis House, and more besides. A great place to people watch. Often busy with tourists.

A great spot to admire the architecture and scenic views of Big Ben and the houses of Parliament

Considering that you're sat in the middle of the busiest roundabout, it's actually a lovely place for a picnic in a sunny day

From behind the statue of Viscount Palmerston the camera tilts to see M's chauffeur-driven Jaguar XJ passing through Parliament Square after Bond's apparent death in Skyfall (2012)

Located right in the middle of London's iconic landmarks such as the Houses of Parliament, Elizabeth Tower (a.k.a Big Ben), Westminster Abbey, Saint-Margaret's Church, and many more.
