\nA museum constructed on the site of buildings used during the Nazi regime, the Topography of Terror features photographs and other items that tell the story of the horrific events during this period.

\nWith a wide selection of plant and animal specimens from different points of natural history, the National History Museum offers a fascinating and informative environment for both children and adults. Among its most popular displays are the 32-metre long replica of a skeleton of a Diplodocus carnegii dinosaur called \u201cDippy\u201d, and a 25-metre long skeleton of a blue whale.<\/p>\nChanging of the guards ceremonies<\/h5>\n
<\/p>\n
\nHeld daily from April to July, and every two days the rest of the year, the changing of the guard ceremony at the Buckingham Palace in London is regarded as the gold standard of ceremonial military and guard marching. At 11:15 in the morning, a group of soldiers, who look dignified in their uniforms, parade around the palace forecourt. To get the best seat, make sure to be there around two hours before that start.<\/p>\n
