London, England’s capital, set on the River Thames, is a 21st-century city with history stretching back to Roman times. At its centre stand the imposing Houses of Parliament, the iconic ‘Big Ben’ clock tower and Westminster Abbey, site of British monarch coronations. Across the Thames, the London Eye observation wheel provides panoramic views of the South Bank cultural complex, and the entire city. The Tower of London, built in 1066, is a royal palace, prison, and treasury, famous for housing the Crown Jewels. It features the White Tower, a Norman military architecture, and has held notable prisoners like Anne Boleyn and Rudolf Hess. The Tower Bridge, completed in 1894, is a Neo-Gothic bridge with panoramic views of London and the Victorian Engine Rooms. Both landmarks are iconic symbols of London with their own unique history and charm. The British Museum in London is a renowned museum with over eight million works, showcasing human culture from its beginnings to the present. Founded in 1753, it houses famous exhibits like the Rosetta Stone, Parthenon sculptures, and Egyptian mummies.
