London, England has its own culture and characteristics. It has a history of human civilization of more than 3, years, and it is also the birthplace of modern science. It is a city full of creativity and culture, and colleagues have also preserved a large number of historical buildings. Here are some places of interest in London, England.
As early as more than 3, years ago, London was the place where the British lived at that time, and it also became the capital of successive dynasties.
Among them, Buckingham
Palace, HousesofParliament and Towerof
London are all internationally famous historical sites.
London is also a modern city. Among the ancient buildings, it can always be found that new buildings are harmoniously integrated into old houses.
Just like The
LondonEye on the Thames, it's really a different experience to enjoy the ancient city of London in a modern cabin.
I believe no one will question the artistic atmosphere of London. The latest works and classic musicals are staged in cinemas and theaters every day, which Londoners regard as a part of their lives. The museums scattered everywhere also show the infinite charm of the city from different levels.
Westminster is the central area of London, where the houses of parliament and other major government departments are located; Soho is a very dynamic and creative part of Westminster, with many restaurants and bars, and the famous Chinatown is also here.
What are the main places of interest in London
Westminster District: TrafalgarSquare
Trafalgar Square is the most famous square in London, England, also known as "Pigeon Square", which was built in the early 19th century to commemorate the famous Trafalgar Sea Battle. On October 21st every year, which is also the day when General Nelson died, many people always go to Trafalgar Square to hold a mourning ceremony.
St. Martin's Church
St. Martin's Church is located in the northeast corner of Trafalgar Square, which is the oldest preserved building in the square. It was finished by Games
Gibbs in 1726, but its history can be traced back to the 13th century, and this place has always been a church.
PiccadillyCircus
Piccadilly Circus, designed by Nash in 1819, is a circular square. This is a famous transportation hub in London, where several bustling streets gather, so the square is called "London's navel".
BritishMuseum
The British Museum in London is located in the city of London. Take the subway to bussel
squre Station, and then ask the locals after leaving the station. I visited the British Museum on July 31st, 217. There are too many people visiting, especially from China. There are several middle school students' tour groups to visit, and there are also many other free travellers from China. Admission to the British Museum is free, but there are donation boxes everywhere, and there are a group of people waiting for donations at the entrance. This refers to donations of large denominations, and there are donation boxes of 5 pounds everywhere. The speaker costs 6 pounds a person, and there are speakers in nine languages. Chinese is one of them. Because there are too many people in China today, the queue is cut off before 3 o'clock, and the person in front of me cuts off, so I can't rent a speaker either. The British Museum is a world museum with too many world treasures in its collection. Especially the stone carvings in ancient Greece and Rome, are really dazzling. If you swim in a day, it's just a hurry.
BuckinghamPalace
Generally, visitors to London seldom visit Buckingham Palace, and there are many time restrictions. Most of them just watch the guard changing ceremony at the gate. In Britain, there are two large-scale guard changing ceremonies, one is Buckingham Palace and the other is Windsor Castle.
Buckingham Palace, the changing ceremony is at 11: 3, and it is difficult to get a foothold in the best position near the door because of the dense crowd.
Visitors should arrive at least one hour early to watch the changing of posts.
Although the 4-minute changing of posts was short, it attracted much attention. However, if there is a rainy day or bad weather, the changing ceremony will not be held. Please pay attention to this. Visitors need to see the official website in Buckingham Palace before coming, so don't make a trip in vain.
