The RAF Chapel at Westminster Abbey was unveiled in 1947 at a service attended by King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, Queen Mary, Princess Elizabeth and Princess Margaret. The royal guests are looking up at the magnificent stained glass window of the chapel.

The Chapel is dedicated to the men of the Royal Air Force who died in the Battle of Britain in 1940.

The exquisite stained glass window includes the badges of 70 squadrons who fought in the Battle, together with the furled flags of New Zealand, Canada, Australia, South Africa, Czechoslovakia, Poland, Belgium, and the United States of America.

🕰Big Ben + Westminster: I didn't go inside Big Ben, but Westminster is worth visiting. Tickets can be booked every Saturday, and there will be a voice guide (Chinese version). It is a magnificent building. You can also see where their members of parliament hold daily meetings. It is the place where the popular video "ORDER!" took place. It is very interesting. 🎡London Eye: When I went there, it happened to be a rare sunny day, so I bought a ticket to go up. The weather was good and the scenery below was also very beautiful. A cable car can accommodate many people. It is still scary at high places, especially for people who are afraid of heights.
