By 3.45 pm, the sun already started setting. I still had a few places left in my itinerary for that day, including the Big Ben and House of Parliament. It was a a pity about the dark photographs, but it actually brought out the peaceful and serene side of the fine architecture.
Surprisingly, when i took this photo facing the London Eye, it actually looked brighter as i was facing the sun. The London Eye looked a little out of place because it was so modern. Due to lack of time and also cos it was a little expensive, i decided to forego a spin on the Eye.

Ahhh...Westminster Abbey, where all Kings and Queens of England's coronation were held, as well as royal weddings. During the weekend i was there, they had Remembrance Day held. The garden was pretty crowded with people offering paper poppy flowers to those who perished in war.
Very beautiful carvings on the walls of Westminster Abbey.
Later i walked through Green Park to cut to Buckingham Palace for a quick look. There were squirrels, swans, ducks and dogs roaming freely in this park. It's like an animals' heaven here.
No changing of guards available at twilight...
I had a quick, brisk walk around Piccadilly Circus, Leicester Square and Covent Garden just to soak in the atmosphere on a Saturday night. It was rowdy, and bustling with activity.
Also squeezed in a quick walk through Chinatown to enjoy the familiar aroma that i missed so much!
