London is the capital of Great Britain, its political, economic and commercial center.
It's one of the largest cities in the world and the largest city in Europe.
Its population is about 9 million.
London is one of the oldest and most interesting cities in the world.
Traditionally it's divided into several parts : the City, Westminster, the West End and the East End.
They are very different from each other and seem to belong to different towns and epochs.
The heart of London is the City, its financial and business center.
Numerous banks, offices and firms are situated there, including the Bank of England, the Stock Exchange and the Old Baily.
Few people live here, but over a million people come to the City to work.
There are some famous ancient buildings within the City.
Perhaps the most striking of them in St.
Paul's Cathedral, the greatest of British churches.
St. Paul's Cathedral has always dominated the center of London.
It stands on the site of former Saxon and Norman churches.
They latter were destroyed in the Great Fire and the present building, completed in 1710, is the work of the eminent architect Sir Christopher Wren.
It is an architectural masterpiece.
Londoners have a particular affection for St.
Paul's, which is the largest Protestant Church in England.
Its high dome, containing the remarkable Whispering Gallery, is a prominent landmark towering above the multistoreyed buildings which line the river - bank.
The Tower of London was one of the first and most impressive castles built after the Norman invasion of England in 1066.
Since the times of William 1 various kings have built and extended the Tower of London and used it for many purposes.
The Tower has been used as a royal palace, an observatory, an arsenal, a state prison, and many famous and infamous people have been executed within its walls.
It is now a museum.
For many visitors the principal attraction is the Crown Jewels, the finest precious stones of the nation.
A fine collection of armour is exhibited in the keep.
The security of the Tower is ensured by a military garnison and by the Yeoman Warders or Beefeaters, who still wear their picturesque Tudor uniform.
Westminster is the historic, the governmental part of London.
Westminster Abbey is a national shrine where the kings and queens are crowned and famous people are buried.
Founded by Edward the Confessor in 1050, the Abbey was a monastery for along time.
The present building dates largely from the times of Henry 3, who began to rebuild the church, a task which lasted nearly 300 years.
The West towers were added in the eighteenth century.
Since William 1 almost every English monarch has been crowned in this great church, which contains the tombs and memo - rials of many of Britain's most eminent citizens : Newton, Darwin, Chauser, Dickens, Tennyson, Kipling and etc.
One of the greatest treasures of the Abbey is the oaken Coronation Chair made in 1300.
The Abbey is also known for its Poet's Corner.
Graves and memorials to many English poets and writers are clustered round about.
Across the road from Westminster Abbey is Westminster Palace, or the Houses of Parliament, the seat of the British Parliament.
The Parliament of the UK of Great Britain and Northern Ireland consists of the House of Lords and the House of Commons.
The House of Lords consists of just over 1, 000 members of the different grades of nobility - dukes, marquesses, earls, viscounts and barons.
In the House of Commons there are 650 members.
They are elected by secret ballot by men and women aged 18 and over.
Every Parliament is divided into Sessions.
Each of these may last a year and usually begins early in November.
The Clock Tower, which contains the hour - bell called Big Ben, is known the world over.
The bell is named after Sir Benjamin Hall.
Buckingham Palace is the official residence of the Queen.
The West End is the richest and most beautiful part of London.
It is the symbol of wealth and luxury.
The best hotels, shops, restaurants, clubs, and theatres are situated there.
There are splendid houses and lovely gardens belonging to wealthy people.
Trafalgar Square is the geographical center of London.
It was named in memory of Admiral Nelson's victory in the battle of Trafalgar in 1805.
The tall Nelson's Column stands in the middle of the square.
On the north side of Trafalgar Square is the National Gallery and the National Portrait Gallery.
Not far away is the British Museum - the biggest museum in London.

Лондон
Лондон - столица Великобритании, ее политический, экономический и торговый центр.
Это один из крупнейших городов в мире и самый большой город в Европе.
Его население составляет около 9 миллионов человек.
Лондон - один из старейших и самых интересных городов в мире.
Традиционно он делится на несколько частей : город, Вестминстер, Вест - Энд и Ист - Энд.
Они очень отличаются друг от друга и, по - видимому, принадлежат к разным городам и эпохам.
В центре Лондона находится Город, его финансовый и деловой центр.
Там расположено множество банков, офисов и фирм, в том числе Банк Англии, Фондовая биржа и Старый Бейли.
Мало кто живет здесь, но более миллиона человек приезжают в город на работу.
В городе есть несколько известных старинных зданий.
Возможно, самый яркий из них в Соборе Святого Павла, величайшей из британских церквей.
Собор Святого Павла всегда доминировал в центре Лондона.
Он стоит на месте бывших саксонских и нормандских церквей.
Они были уничтожены в Великом Огне, а нынешнее здание, завершенное в 1710 году, - работа выдающегося архитектора сэра Кристофера Рена.
Это архитектурный шедевр.
У лондонцев особая любовь к Сент - Паулу, которая является самой большой протестантской церковью в Англии.
Его высокий купол, содержащий замечательную галерею Whispering, является выдающимся памятником, возвышающимся над многоэтажными зданиями, которые выходят на берег реки.
Лондонский Тауэр был одним из первых и самых впечатляющих замков, построенных после вторжения Нормана в Англию в 1066 году.
Со времен Уильяма 1 различные короли построили и расширили Лондонский Тауэр и использовали его для многих целей.
Башня использовалась как королевский дворец, обсерватория, арсенал, государственная тюрьма, и многие знаменитые и позорные люди были казнены в ее стенах.
Это теперь музей.
Для многих посетителей главной привлекательностью являются драгоценности Короны, лучшие драгоценные камни нации.
В стойке выставлена прекрасная коллекция брони.
Безопасность Башни обеспечивается военным гарнизоном и Йоменскими Хранителями или Биферами, которые все еще носят их живописную форму Тюдоров.
Вестминстер - историческая, правительственная часть Лондона.
Вестминстерское аббатство - это национальная святыня, где короны и королевы коронованы, а знаменитые люди похоронены.
Основанный Эдвардом Исповедником в 1050 году, Аббатство было монастырем в течение долгого времени.
Настоящее здание датируется во многом из времен Генри 3, которые начали восстанавливать церковь, задача, которая длилась почти 300 лет.
Западные башни были добавлены в восемнадцатом веке.
Начиная с Уильяма 1 почти каждый английский монарх был увенчан в этой великой церкви, в которой хранятся гробницы и воспоминания многих самых выдающихся граждан Великобритании : Ньютона, Дарвина, Чаузера, Диккенса, Теннисона, Киплинга и т.
Д. Одно из величайших сокровищ Аббатство - это дубовое кресло коронации, выполненное в 1300 году.
Аббатство также известно своим Уголом поэтов.
Могилы и мемориалы многим английским поэтам и писателям объединяются вокруг.
Через дорогу от Вестминстерского аббатства находится Вестминстерский дворец или палата парламента, резиденция британского парламента.
Парламент Великобритании Великобритании и Северной Ирландии состоит из Палаты лордов и Палаты общин.
Палата лордов состоит из более чем 1000 членов различных классов дворянства - герцогов, марок, графов, виконтов и баронов.
В Палате общин насчитывается 650 членов.
Они избираются тайным голосованием мужчинами и женщинами в возрасте 18 лет и старше.
Каждый парламент разделен на Сессии.
Каждый из них может длиться год и обычно начинается в начале ноября.
Часовая башня с часовым звонком, называемая Биг Бен, известна во всем мире.
Колокол назван в честь сэра Бенджамина Холла.
Букингемский дворец является официальной резиденцией королевы.
Уэст - Энд - самая богатая и красивая часть Лондона.
Это символ богатства и роскоши.
Здесь расположены лучшие отели, магазины, рестораны, клубы и театры.
Есть роскошные дома и прекрасные сады, принадлежащие богатым людям.
Трафальгарская площадь - географический центр Лондона.
Он был назван в память о победе адмирала Нельсона в битве при Трафальгаре в 1805 году.
Столбец Нельсона стоит посреди площади.
На северной стороне Трафальгарской площади находится Национальная галерея и Национальная портретная галерея.
Недалеко находится Британский музей - самый большой музей в Лондоне.
Он содержит бесценную коллекцию древних рукописей, монет, скульптур, ets и славится своей библиотекой.
Ист - Энд - самый бедный район Лондона.
Здесь есть много заводов, мастерских и доков.
Улицы узкие, здания не впечатляют.
Ист - Энд густо населен семьями рабочего класса.
