First view of Tower Hill once we got out of the tube.
This is a view of the entrance to Tower Hill.
This is White Tower, the main part of the castle that was once home to various kings. While I was there, it was home to the King Henry VIII exhibit. He was highly respected in his exhibit, a point of view that counters the American point of view.
This is the home of the ravens. By decree of King Charles II, at least 6 ravens must be on the Tower Hill premises. I think I heard a tale about how they are good luck, but I cannot remember. The oldest raven to live at Tower Hill was named Jim Crow and died at age 44.
This is the building that houses the crown jewels. Like any other museum, we were not allowed to take pictures, but it is totally worth seeing the jewels in person.
A gaurd outside of the building that houses the crown jewels.
Traitors' Gate... closest thing to a moat that I will ever see.
Tower Bridge from a distance.
This is a monument on the exact location where all the beheadings at Tower Hill occurred.
