How to see Parliament ... but not when it’s working


FROM August, the #HousesofParliament in #London adds Brazilian Portuguese as a language option for self-guided audio tours through the House of Commons, the House of Lords, and medieval Westminster Hall. It complements existing audio commentaries in French, German, Italian, Spanish, Russian, and Mandarin Chinese … plus, of course, English and a screen-based version in British Sign Language.

The audio tours and Blue Badge guided tours, are available on Saturdays throughout the year and on most weekdays during Parliamentary recesses. 

2015 is a special year in which to visit Britain’s Houses of Parliament, with two significant anniversaries being marked: 800 years since the sealing of Magna Carta (1215), and 750 years since Simon de Montfort’s first parliament in 1265.
