Hampton
Court.
For almost 200 years, Hampton Court Palace was at the centre
of court life, politics and national history. Although often
identified with Henry VIII, its history was influenced just
as much by William III and Queen Mary II in the late 17th
century.
The
Royal Botanic Gardens. Housing the largest living plant
collection in the world, Kew Gardens also undertakes reaserch
into taxonomy, economic and ethnobotany and conservation.
Windsor
Castle. Built on a high chalk ridge which is close to
what was a vital transport link at the time- the river Thames.
The castle is one of the official homes of Her Majesty Queen
Elizabeth II. Covering 13 acres, it is the largest inhabited
castle in the world.
