Spending a couple of days in London, we decided to visit the Banqueting House on Saturday morning, after a gap of many years since we last enjoyed the building. Spectacular architecture by Inigo Jones and an awe inspiring ceiling by Rubens. Make sure you use the excellent free audio guide which brings the whole history of the building to life. Enjoy viewing the ceiling either via the handily placed mirror for the less able or for the more agile by lying back on the flexible bean bag style seating. Looking across Whitehall to the crowds jostling for the perfect selfie with the Horse Guards, all in the wind and rain, it seemed a shame that more were not enjoying this great building which has played such a big part in British history. The staff were very welcoming and helpful.

    The banquet hall is a National Monument and is open to the public. It was designed in neoclassical style and completed in 1822. The hall has beautiful and magnificent pillars and amazing ceiling paintings. Charles I was beheaded outside the hall in history, and it is also very close to Downing Street.

    Small long vacation and good friends come here to play, the air here is very good, there are many people to play. There are men and women, old and young, and some small couples. The temperature is hot these days, but sweating is still very good. They have a good time these days. Next time they will come here to play with good friends. Generally speaking, this trip is worth visiting.

    Photographs are not allowed for intrauterine visits. The overall impression is simple and elegant. Because it is still in use, rather than a pure Memorial place, the various furnishings, banquet halls, reception halls, gifts presented to the Queen by the heads of state, the Queen's dress display and so on can easily remind people of a single news happened at a certain time that they are familiar with, and naturally feel that the whole palace is alive.

    It really deserves to be a banquet hall. It feels really big and luxurious inside. It's really the world of the rich. We really don't understand it. It's also very beautiful inside.

    The hall is magnificent and magnificent. Its luxury can be seen from its various details. The articles and decorations in it are very exquisite.
