London, England - Tower of London from Tower Hill

A view of the Tower of London from Tower Hill in London, England. The White Tower is in the center, and Tower Bridge is to the right, with its two towers visible in the background. The tower is surrounded by thick outer walls. A row of horse drawn carriages is parked on the street in the foreground. The tower has been used for many things over the years, including as a fortress, royal residence, zoo, prison for nobles, execution chamber, and museum. The tower is still considered a royal residence as well as a museum, and thus has a permanent royal guard, n.d.
