Picture of the day: Marble Arch, London

Filed under Attractions

Today’s picture of the day is of Marble Arch on Oxford Street, London. This famous landmark was designed by John Nash and built in 1828. It was originally an entrance to Buckingham Palace but moved to its current site to serve as an entrance to Hyde Park when the Palace was extended in 1851.
