This is the HOUSES of PARLIAMENT in London,England! There was a man named Guy Fawks who tried to blow up the HOUSES of PARLIAMENT with gun powder! But the King's servants found him and killed him by chopping off his head! And every year in November, people have a fire works display and also burn a paper replica of Guy Fawks! This event is called "Bonfire Night"!
