A square tower at the south-west end of the Palace of Westminster. It was purposely built to be fireproof to store books. The tower was originally designed as a royal entrance and a repository for the records of Parliament, and is now home to the Parliamentary Archives.

A public park adjacent to the Thames River, it is close to Victoria Tower. Several statues decorate the park. The park is close to the Westminster and Pimlico Underground Stations. The space has a small playground at the bridge end and a central obelisk feature in the middle. Raised seats provide views across the river.

The oldest existing part of the palace. A place where the nobles, soldiers, and workers throughout the ages have once congregated. It is primarily used for judicial purposes. It has also been used for ceremonial functions, though a coronation here hasn't occurred in quite a while. What makes it such an astonishing building is not simply its great size and the magnificence of its roof, but its central role in British history. In and around the Hall, grew up the major institutions of the British state: Parliament, the law courts and various government offices. Every government official should take the time to visit the hall to breath in the presence of politicians past.
