I had been to the Tower of London once, back in 2011.
I absolutely loved it, and knew I had to take my family there when they came to visit.
Built by William the Conqueror in the 1070s, it was used throughout the ages as both a palace and a prison. Some of England's most notorious people in history lived and died there (Anne Boleyn for example).
The most striking feature about the Tower of London (besides it's incredible age) is it's location in modern day London. It's amazing to see such a modern skyline while standing in a thousand year old fortress.

Because I had already visited once,
I didn't seem to take many pictures.
Oh well!
Happy Tuesday!
