Houses of Parliament & Political London Audio Guide
Overview
Discover the Houses of Parliament, the centre of British politics for hundreds of years. With an audio guide leading your journey, explore the palace that symbolises the UK’s past, present and future.
Step into the House of Lords, and admire the golden throne where the king opens each session of parliament with a speech. Go at your own pace as you see the House of Commons, where proposed laws are debated. Walk through Westminster Hall, the oldest building where the three highest courts used to sit.
Afterwards, discover more of political London with an audio guide app. Navigate at your own pace with a digital map and explore 15 points of interest, including 10 Downing Street.
