It's been 150 years this summer since building wrk was cmpleted n the Huses f Parliament in Westminster, Lndn. When it was cmpleted, Tsar Nichlas I, the ruler f Russia, called it “a dream in stne”.
Imprtant buildings have been built n this site fr mre than 1, 000 years. In the early 8th century, a church was built that became knwn as the West Minster. In the 11th century it was the lcatin f a ryal residence (王室宅邸). This was the first Palace f Westminster. The first fficial Parliament met there in 1295. Wrk n the palace cntinued until 1834, when the building was destryed by fire.
In 1835, the architect Charles Barry was picked t design the Parliament building in a style knwn as “Gthic Revival”. Anther architect, Augustus Pugin, helped with the inner part.

In 2018, Parliament held discussins ver its restratin and decided that its members wuld have t mve ut f the building during its refurbishment (翻新).
The plan is fr everyne t mve ut by 2025 when the restratin will begin. It is said that it will cst arund £4 billin and be cmpleted by the early 2030s. The plans include taking away all fire risks, restring the stnewrk and repairing arund 4,000 windws.
