London, England, A City Full of History
Victoria Philippova from Russia My first visit to London was one and a half years ago. It was a wonderful trip. I stayed in the city for three weeks, and I had many impressions. I visited all the famous places. I'd like to tell you about some of the places I visited in this beautiful city. When I dreamed of seeing London in the past, I always wanted to see the Tower Bridge and the famous Big Ben clock. I visited these places, and I went on a tourist boat on the River Thames and saw two coasts. First,
I went to the Tower of London, and I want to say
that it is a very interesting historical place. I
found out that a long time ago, it was a prison.
I also enjoyed visiting the House of Parliament and Westminister Abbey, two very popular places for tourists. They are very old and beautiful. The Abbey is built in a kind of Gothic style; it is fantastic. In London, you can also enjoy nature. There are many parks such as Regent's Park, Hyde Park, Green Park, St. James Park, and Holland Park. These parks are wonderful green, quiet places where you can relax and escape the noise of the city.
Another very special place in London that I like is St. Paul's Cathedral which was designed by Sir Christopher Wren. I also was impressed with the museums in London. They're very popular. I found them interesting because you can learn about the history of England. I had a wonderful time in London. I really liked it because it is a city that is rich in history.
