Tulip Staircase, The Queens House, London, England
This is a place I have been meaning to go for some time, I would probably say nearly two years but every time I had gone into London I never got round to going so on Monday I thought I would pay the Queen's House a visit.
I know this is a Cliché this image and has been taken many many times over by quite a few of my Flickr contacts but its such a beautiful and elegant staircase, an image is a must! Sadly there are not many 'original' POVs of this staircase as you can only take the image from below only and can't go up the top of the stairs as its blocked off.
I have always wondered why it was called the Tulip Staircase and when I was there I looked closely at the ironwork on the handrail or Balustrade I think its called, there are flowers on there, thought to be Tulips hence the name.
Also massive thanks to all those who took the time to congratulate me and comment on yesterdays image upload with my recent commended image in Sony World Photography Awards, really does mean a lot to me.

Location Information
The Queen's House, Greenwich, is a former royal residence built between 1616–1619 in Greenwich, then a few miles downriver from London, and now a district of the city. Its architect was Inigo Jones, for whom it was a crucial early commission, for Anne of Denmark, the queen of King James I of England. It was altered and completed by Jones, in a second campaign about 1635 for Henrietta Maria, queen of King Charles I. The Queen's House is one of the most important buildings in British architectural history, being the first consciously classical building to have been constructed in Britain. It was Jones's first major commission after returning from his 1613–1615 grand tour of Roman, Renaissance and Palladian architecture in Italy.
Some earlier English buildings, such as Longleat, had made borrowings from the classical style; but these were restricted to small details and were not applied in a systematic way. Nor was the form of these buildings informed by an understanding of classical precedents. The Queen's House would have appeared revolutionary to English eyes in its day. Jones is credited with the introduction of Palladianism with the construction of the Queen's House, although it diverges from the mathematical constraints of Palladio and it is likely that the immediate precedent for the H shaped plan straddling a road is the Villa Medici at Poggio a Caiano by Giuliano da Sangallo. Today it is both a grade I listed building and a Scheduled ancient monument, a status which includes the 115-foot-wide (35 m), axial vista to the River Thames. The house now forms part of the National Maritime Museum and is used to display parts of their substantial collection of maritime paintings and portraits. It was used as a VIP centre in the 2012 Olympic games.
