The Royal Albert Hall was built to fulfil the vision of Prince Albert (Queen Victoria's consort) of a 'Central Hall' that would be used to promote understanding and appreciation of the Arts and Sciences and would stand at the heart of the South Kensington estate, surrounded by museums and places of learning.
The Hall is a Grade I Listed building; and has been in continuous use since it was opened in March 1871. It was always conceived as a multipurpose building to host not only concerts of music but exhibitions, public meetings, scientific conversations and award ceremonies. It is a registered charity held in trust for the nation and is financially self sufficient, receiving no funding from central or local government.

Aprenderá sobre la historia de Mont-Roig y le llevaremos a establecimientos locales.
La ermita de “Mare de Déu de la Roca” está situada en una pequeña montaña muy erosionada situada atrás del pueblo de Mont-roig, con la capilla de San Ramón situada en lo alto de una cima formada por una roca de arenisca rojiza. La capilla de construyó en el 1.299 para albergar una estatua de madera de la Virgen María que se veneraba allí.
Aun se pueden ver las ruinas del castillo, y las fechas de 1655 y 1785 están inscritas en la puerta de entrada, lo que demuestra que el sitio se amplió a medida que se hizo más popular como un lugar de peregrinación.

On this special day trip from London, you'll be invited to enter the stone circle itself, and stand beside the mysterious rocks towering above you. Your guide will unlock the secrets of this ancient World Heritage site. Enjoy the peace, away from the crowds, as you experience Stonehenge at its atmospheric best at sunrise.

We'll also see the Bodleian Library and the picture perfect college courtyards for which Oxford is famous.
Windsor Castle
Our day continues with a visit to Windsor Castle, the largest and oldest occupied Castle in the world, and home of the Royal Family for 900 years. Its proud, strong walls dominate the delightful town that has grown around the castle over the years. You'll see the lavishly decorated State Apartments containing priceless furniture in glorious colours and St George's Chapel, home to the 14th Century Order of the Royal Garter, our senior chivalric order.
Visitors can still enjoy the extensive Castle Precincts, St George's Chapel (except on Sundays and certain other dates - please see below), Queen Mary's Dolls' House and the exhibition in the Drawings Gallery.
