    Westminster Abbey is the famous Cathedral where

    all the English

    monarchs have

    been crowned for

    over 600 years

    and many of

    them subse-

    quently buried

    beside other:

    prime ministers,

    soldiers, artist,

    politicians.

    London Eye is an observatory in the form of a gigan-

    tic big

    wheel, com-

    mandingviews for

    45 km

    around. It

    was

    opened in

    the year

    2000 and it

    is now one

    of Londons outstanding attraction.

    Houses of Parliament it is a wonderful complex of

    buildings com-bines the his-

    toric site of the

    old royal palace

    with the good

    planning and

    fine craftsman-

    ship of the mid

    nineteenth cen-

    tury. Palace of Westminster is dominated on eastern

    extremity by the 97 m high tower housing the palace

    clockBig Ben.

    Pomp, Pageantry and Ceremonies in London

    Buckingham Palace-the Queens official London

    home, offers you an everyday famous show the cere-

    mony of changing

    guards .

    Built for the Duke of

    Buckingham in 1703,

    the original house was

    substantially remod-

    eled over the years. In

    1837, Queen Victoria

    made Buckingham

    Palace the Queens

    home.

    The Trooping the Colour

    Ceremony in honour of the

    Sovereigns birthday is one of

    the most popular ceremonies in

    London. The Troops, in full

    dress uniforms, are from the

    Household Cavalry and the

    Guards Division. The route

    from Buckingham Palace to

    Horse Guards parade is deco-

    rated with banners and flags

    Modern London is a hybrid creature formed from

    ancient cities of London and Westminster evolving

    over the centuries into what is today a sprawling

    metropolis comprising some 7500000 inhabitants in

    an area of about 480 square meters.

    London is at least two thousand years old and was

    settled long before the first Roman invasion. Over

    the centuries the City has jealously guarded itsindependence which has been recognized by a se-

    ries of royal charters.

    The medieval face of London was dramatically

    changed by the Great Fire which broke out on 2 nd

    of September 1666 in Pudding Lane and destroyed

    over 13000 houses and 80 churches.

    Despite the extensive development that has

    changed Londons pre-war skyline almost beyond

    recognition, the best of its administrative, commer-

    cial and domestic building is more historical than

    modern.

    Many historical monu-

    ments were built over the

    centuries as a nations

    tribute to their sovereign

    or in the memory of wars

    heroes.

    Looking at a map the emerald

    paths of Londons parks standout like islands in the very cen-

    ter of its vast sea of streets and

    buildings. Hyde Park, St. Jamess Park, Green

    park and Regent Park are only some of the most

    beautiful Londons parks.

    No journey to London would be complete without a

    visit to the British Museum, the largest and the

    most important cultural center in the world, inau-

    gurated in 1753 and opened to the public in 1759.
