London Eye

London Eye is 135 meters high and has become one of the world's tallest observation wheels(观景摩天轮). It has 32 capsules(密闭) and carries about 10,000 visitors every day. You can travel in complete safety. And you can see up to 40 kilometers away in all directions from each capsule.

Because of the way the capsules are hung, it provides a full 360- degree panorama(全) when you are at the top of the wheel.

•Buckingham Palace

Buckingham Palace is Queen Elizabeth II’s official residence(寝宫). The State Rooms(国事厅)in it have been open to the public for the Summer Opening since 1993. At first, the Summer Opening was considered a way to raise money for repairing Buckingham Palace, but it became so popular that the Queen has continued to let visitors enjoy it every summer. The Queen is not at Buckingham Palace when it is open to the public--she goes to one of her country residences.

If you are visiting at a different time of the year, go to see the Changing of the Guard(换岗仪式).

More than 7 million objects are kept in the British Museum, and it would probably take a week to see everything! Don't think the British Museum is full of works of art from old England.
