Chapter 726: The Sun Never Sets (2)
After the two walked out of the Houses of Parliament, they looked up and saw Big Ben.
Although the bell of Big Ben is no longer audible due to renovations, it still does not prevent people from appreciating its magnificence.
The glittering coat, whether under the tower or in the sky, 360 degrees, has its unique charm, together with the Palace of Westminster, the two are like conjoined babies, is the most heroic scenery by the Thames.
Unlike the Houses of Parliament, the interior of Big Ben is only open to the British public.
After accompanying He Caiwei to take a photo under Big Ben, Li Futu led her from Westminster Bridge to the other side.
Because there is another city card of London, the London Eye.
He Caiwei is now honestly acting as a marionette, almost wherever Li Futu takes her, she will go, and she will not express her opinion at all. One is that she is completely unfamiliar with foreign countries, and the other is that she has thoroughly understood the erudition of this man.
At the beginning of her mother's bedside, this man mentioned the customs of various countries with ease, and she thought it was a bit exaggerated at first, but now she finally realized that he might have really been to all the places he was talking about.
But they're all the same age in their twenties.
He Caiwei smiled bitterly in her heart, but she didn't have any jealousy.
Who would be jealous of their own man.
"I think I've seen it somewhere. ”
Ascending to the London Eye, as the car gradually climbed to the top, with the panoramic view of London, a sense of familiarity also hit He Caiwei's heart.
"This is the London Eye, many domestic film and television dramas have been filmed here, the last time you accompanied Aunt Xiao to watch that movie, some of the scenes were not filmed here. ”
Li Futu explained.
He Caiwei suddenly realized.
Looking down on the city of London from above is really different, the original tall Big Ben has shrunk into a small rectangle, but it still can't hide its glittering on the banks of the River Thames.
"The London Eye? That's a good name. ”
He Caiwei said with a smile, in fact, to put it bluntly, this place is similar to the domestic Ferris wheel, at best, the scale is larger, but because of a name, the style has suddenly risen several grades.
After about half an hour of circumference around the London Eye, the two walked slowly and melodiously north along the River Thames.
"If only time could stand still forever. ”
He Caiwei held Li Futu's hand and rested her head on his shoulder.
"You even know the goddess of wisdom, do you know the god of time?"
Looking at the cunning in the girl's eyes, Li Futu couldn't help but wonder.
At this time, He Caiwei was obviously very different from the appearance he first knew.
He was pleased with the change.
Who says life is only as it first seems?
"Do you have any money?"
He Caiwei said suddenly, turning her head to look to the left.
Li Futu also looked up and took out his wallet.
On the square over there, there is a 'bronze statue'. It is said to be a bronze statue, but in fact it is just a person with bronze paint painted all over his body, he is motionless, his hands hanging in front of his chest, and he does look like a lifeless sculpture.
He Caiwei took a piece of pound sterling from Li Futu's hand and ran over, bent down and gently placed it at the foot of the bronze statue.
Just as she straightened up and was about to turn away. The bronze statue suddenly moved.
It was like a sculpture suddenly endowed with a soul, his movements were extremely slow, he gently grabbed He Caiwei's hand, and touched He Caiwei's face with one hand, his eyes were quiet and kind, as if the Lord was blessing him.
For some reason, this peaceful scene seems to have a tremendous power that directly touches people's hearts, and makes people feel the urge to move their eyes to tears.
A lot of people around picked up their cameras.
"They're street performers, they're really great. ”
Sitting in a restaurant, He Caiwei looked out the window and muttered softly.
There, the bronze statue returned to its static posture.
She doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, and she doesn't practice religion, but the hand just now gently touched her face, and from that fingertip, it seemed to transmit a power that penetrated her soul.
That's the beauty of culture.
This is Covent Garden, and although it's called a park, don't think it's a park. It's actually one of London's oldest markets, and the typical Roman market has become more down-to-earth because of people and beer. There are so many restaurants and souvenir shops here that it is enough to break the saying that there is no good food in the UK.
"I think it's more appropriate to call them masters of the arts. ”
Li Futu commented.
There is no shortage of such people in the country, but they are called beggars.
I don't blame outsiders for belittling, just because there is a difference between the two sides' perception of themselves.
After finishing the meal, the two got on the ferry and went down the river.
"Do you know where this is?"
Li Futu looked at a suspension bridge that appeared in front of him and asked with a smile.
He Caiwei shook her head.
"You haven't seen Harry Potter?"
"I've seen it, what's wrong?"
This kind of world-renowned blockbuster, He Caiwei has naturally seen it.
"Don't you think this place is familiar?"
Li Futu is like a competent tour guide.
"There's a crumbling scene at the beginning of the book, where the Death Eaters invade the Muggle world and make a big fuss, and the bridge destroyed in the play is the Millennium Bridge in front of us. ”
The steel suspension bridge connects the south bank to the city and is pedestrian-only, with a lightweight, slender shape that resembles a silver belt on the River Thames.
Because the communication between the two is in Chinese, the tourists around them can't understand it, otherwise I'm afraid they will be surprised by Li Futu's erudition.
"I really feel like an ignorant fool in front of you. ”
He Caiwei smiled bitterly, although she knew that this was her man, she still couldn't suppress the frustration in her heart.
"If you compare with me, you're asking for a blow. ”
The corners of Li Futu's mouth turned up slightly.
"Nasty!"
He Caiwei slapped him, and the whole person pounced on him.
The ferry passed the Millennium Bridge, and Li Futu led her off the ferry.
"Here I know that this is São Paulo, where Princess Diana used to get married. ”
He Caiwei immediately said, her tone was a little high, as if she wanted to regain a little confidence in this.
That's right, the two of them are indeed St. Paul's Church in front of them.
The baroque domed church resembles a phoenix in flames, and you can see its ornate dome from the Thames, and when you approach it, you will be amazed by the grandeur of it.
People at the foot of the cathedral hold up their cameras and try to capture the full view of the church. No matter how noisy the surrounding traffic is, every grass and tree accompanying here seems to calmly recall the wedding ceremony of Princess Diana here.
São Paulo has not changed much, but the beauty who once wore her wedding dress here has died.
"Let's go in and have a look. ”
Li Futu said softly.
Diana.
One of the most acclaimed princesses in the world, but she was accidentally killed in a car accident, leaving behind a son and a daughter.
The boy's name is Harry.
The girl's name is Louis Windsor.
