The Tower of London isn't actually a tower, but a castle made of many towers. It is bordered by the River Thames and has many famous aspects including the White Tower and the Tower Bridge. This tower also served as a prison for many infamous prisoners and as a zoo for a brief period of time. The families of the Torment Warders still live here adding to the tower's glory.
St. Paul's Cathedral is the seat of the Bishop of London and is famous as an angelic architectural masterpiece created by architect Christopher Wren between the years of 1675 to 1711. The Whispering Gallery is the center of attraction at the Cathedral, where even a slight whisper resounds across the dome several times over. The Cathedral houses a wide range of unique artworks displayed around the Cathedral. Many tourists come to the St Paul Cathedral only to witness this architectural marvel of the late 16th century.
The House of Parliament, more commonly known as the Palace of Westminster was built by Edward the Confessor and was enlarged by William I. The Great Fire of 1834 changed the Palace's role from a residence of the royal family to mere meeting spot between the House of Commons and the House of Nobles. This is the reason why the term 'House of Parliament' is used instead of the Palace of Westminster.
