Where Kings, Queens & Geniuses Eternal Party 🏰✨
For 1,000+ years, Westminster Abbey has been the VIP lounge for British royalty, scientists, and literary legends. From Newton’s tomb to coronation thrones, this Gothic masterpiece is crowded with dead A-listers—but in the best possible way. 📍 20 Dean’s Yard, SW1P 3PA 🎟️ £25 (Book ahead—queues wrap like a royal funeral). ✨ Grave-Hopping Guide: ⚰️ Newton’s Floor Plaque – Near his dramatic marble statue (look down!). 🧬 Darwin’s Memorial – Evolution battle cry in the nave. 🪐 Hawking’s Stone – Beside Newton, eternally debating physics. ✍️ Poets’ Corner – Dickens (actual bones), Shakespeare (just a bust—sorry). 👑 Coronation Chair – Butt prints of 40+ monarchs since 1308. 💀 Spooky Bonus: The "human-skin door" (maybe?) in the cloisters. Hot Take: The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Window glows like stained-glass TikTok. Would you sneak a selfie with Shakespeare’s ghost? 📸 Comment below! #LondonHistory #WestminsterAbbey #RoyalLondon #LiteraryPilgrimage #HiddenGems
