Westminster

Area Guide For Westminster

Westminster is an area of Central London within the City of Westminster on the North bank of the River Thames. An area dominated by the businesses of government, and the great symbols of British heritage. The Houses of Parliament, with its mighty bell Big Ben that can be heard throughout Central London chiming the hours, is a far more imposing building than Buckingham Palace, reflecting the power of the oldest elected government in the world. In the early twentieth century more than a quarter of the earth’s population was directly ruled from Westminster, and the imposing statuary and huge ministries of Whitehall reflect this legacy.
