老良漫游教堂建筑
Tickets are required, £6. Although it is ruins. However, what wealth was left after the baptism of time, which was once a great project? When visiting the museum, there will be new discoveries. This monastery, known as the World Heritage Site, is well worth wandering around. This is one of the most important monasteries in medieval England, with charming architecture, majestic memorials and a charming atmosphere. Visiting this place is to find and spiritual cultivation, giving us the opportunity to touch the spiritual birthplace of the English world. St. Augustine's monastery developed into a great Romanesque monastery, one of the most magnificent and influential monasteries in Europe. But this power and influence did not last. During the reign of Henry VIII, the great monastery was destroyed. Walking through the ruins and breathing the ancient atmosphere can temporarily keep us away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

This is by far the best square in London. The beauty of this place is simply unparalleled. Four big lions and beautiful fountains add spectacular views to this place. When we went in the afternoon, it was crowded with tourists. The National Gallery is right on the square. I took some pretty pictures of this place. You can sit by the fountain for hours drinking coffee or eating a waffle ice cream.

Watched the afternoon performance of Midsummer Night's Dream. It was an incredible performance, very interesting, fun-filled, easy to watch and understand. The actors were all excellent, and the play incorporated some modern elements but very tasteful and textured. The building is beautiful, we have good seats on the upper floor, G1 and G2 have good stage views. Recommend everyone to go to the Universal Theatre to see the performance.

I love Greenwich, this is the most amazing place! I traveled with my partner and parents who were deeply impressed by the intricacies and beauty of the place. I can’t wait to do it again and I think it will be a regular spot for our weekend walk now! My dream is to get married here!

I have visited Ightham Mote many times over the years, but today I found it very frustrating as first we went into the house and it was all a different way round so were not entering the old entrance where the dressing up box is now, also the outside from the kitchen the old lavatory is now blocked although did not want to use it!! but it was very interesting seeing the old wooden boxed in toilet that I remember as a child, every room had so many roped off areas which really spoilt it, I was told that it was for safety reasons because of co-vid? (not now for goodness sake) one room had so many large written boards that you could hardly see the room, I am sure there was something else of interest in that room, but can't remember what it was.The whole place was rather spoilt now very disappointing, unless of course it was one first visit then you wouldn't know any differance. Signs to the restaurant were bad, everyone was walking up the old hill to the restaurant arrived at the top and it was blocked off, we were directed around to another entrance which we could not find till someone told us you had to go through the entrance marked Toilets the sigh was pass the toilets this should have been at the front. Just hoping that next year it will be back to its normal route round and all these ropestaken away. Disappointed.
