A lesson in democracy! Learned how laws are made and saw the Queen’s Robing Room. The tour ends at Westminster Hall, where monarchs have lain in state—humbling.

Walking through the Commons and Lords chambers felt surreal. The audio guide’s clips of historic debates added context. The Gothic architecture’s intricacies are mind-blowing.
