For nearly 2000 years London has been the most
important city in Britain. Its position on the
River Thames has turned it into an international
port and a centre for finance, trade, industry,
arts and government. The Tower of London was a
former royal residence which later served as a
prison. The Monument commemorates the fire in
1666, which consumed most of the old City. With
the re-building came many famous churches,
including St. Paul's Cathedral. In London you can
find the Houses of Parliament and Buckingham
Palace. In the west there are many famous stores
like Harrods, and other fashionable areas such as
Kensington and Chelsea. It is a city where old
and new live together.
