The Westminster Abbey in London, England

I might not be able to witness personally the wedding of Prince William and Kate today, April 29, 2011 in London, England but I am appy to see once in my life the church where their wedding took place.

The Westminster Abbey, also called as The Collegiate Church of St Peter at Westminster is a church with a Gothic architecture. It is located in Westminster, London, England (UK), located just to the west of the Palace of Westminster.

I had a wonderful trip in England last Autumn 2008 and one of the sights I enabled to visit was the historical Westminster Abbey. More updates to come soon!

Lastly, best wishes to the newly wed, Prince William and Kate. Thanks to the live program of ZDF. I was able to watch almost the whole ceremony.
