Graceland it's the house where lived Elvis Presley. Now it's a museum (perhaps oh the horrors). The people who likes lost part of his money, can visit Graceland. There are three prices to tour: VIP, Platinum and Mansion tour. VIP costs 69$, platinum 33$ and mansion 28$. In Graceland lived Elvis Presley and his son, Lisa Marie. The house is very, very big. It includes a living room, music room, Elvis’ parents' bedroom, the dining room, kitchen, TV room, pool room and jungle room. Behind the house there are the Elvis’ racquetball building, with a business office. Once of the most interesting part of the mansion, is a trophy building, which his enormous collection of gold records and awards.

The White House was built by James Hoban, an irish-born architect who won the gold medal for his design. The White house has more than two-handred years. The president John Adams was the first resident in 1800. White House has survived two fires, in 1812, during the british war, and in 1929. Every president (and his wife) can design parts into the house.

The 10 downing street, it’s the residence of British Prime Minister. Specially, 10 Downing street is very known for her front door. It’s very frequent to see this white door and the black briquets of the wall in the newspapers or on TV news. When someone looks at the beginning, 10 downing street it appears a normal mansion. But if you can go into the house, and you can visit its dependences, you’ll recognise one of the most important power’s center of the world.
