Westminster is full of churches - reminds me of 'Church Row' in Salt Lake.


This is St. Margaret's Chapel (Anglican) right next to Westminster Abbey. This was Parliament's chapel for a very long time and Sir Walter Raleigh is buried here (beheaded by James I).





Then we have across the street Methodist Central Hall. This was finished in 1912 for the centenary of John Wesley's death. It was also the site of the largest air raid shelter during WWII and where the first General Assembly of the UN was held in 1946.


Here is an inside shot of Central Hall. It felt more 'my style' than the other churches, but I think that is just because it reminds me of the Tabernacle in Salt Lake.
