Я также посетила Вестминстерское аббатство. Как мне кажется, это одна из самых красивых церквей в мире. Там похоронено огромное количество представителей королевской знати. Здесь коронуют и хоронят всех королей и королев. Недалеко от него можно увидеть огромное чертово колесо. Англичане называют его Лондонским глазом, поскольку оно — одно из самых высоких чёртовых колес в мире (135 метров) и благодаря этому видно весь Лондон. Мы также ездили по Тауэрскому мосту.

Объяснение:

I also visited Westminster Abbey. It seems to me that this is one of the most beautiful churches in the world. A huge number of representatives of the royal nobility are buried there. All kings and queens are crowned and buried here. Not far from it you can see a huge ferris wheel. The British call it the London Eye, because it is one of the highest ferris wheels in the world (135 meters) and thanks to this, the whole of London is visible. We also drove over the Tower Bridge.
