London, Capital of Great Britain
London is the capital of Great Britain, its political, economic, and commercial centre. It is one of the largest cities in the world and the largest city in Europe. Its population is about 8 million.
London is divided into several parts: the City, Westminster, the West End, and the East End.
The heart of London is the City, its financial and business centre. A lot of banks, offices, and firms are situated there. Few people live here, but over a million people come to the City to work. Perhaps the most striking of them is the St. Paul's Cathedral, the greatest of English churches.
Westminster is the governmental part of London. Nearly all English kings and queens have been crowned in Westminster Abbey. Many outstanding statesmen, scientists, writers, poets, and painters are buried here.
Across the road from Westminster Abbey is Westminster Palace, the seat of the British Parliament. The Clock Tower of the Houses of Parliament is famous for its big bell, known as "Big Ben". 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.
The Trafalgar Square is the geographical centre 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 the Trafalgar Square is the National Portrait Gallery. Not far away is the British Museum — the biggest museum in London.

Здесь живут немногие, но свыше миллиона людей приезжает в Город на работу. В Городе находятся несколько известных старинных зданий. Возможно, самое замечательное из них — это собор Св. Павла, самая крупная из английских церквей.
Вестминстер — это правительственный район Лондона.
В Вестминстерском аббатстве были коронованы почти все английские короли и королевы. Многие выдающиеся государственные деятели, ученые, писатели, поэты и художники похоронены здесь.
Через дорогу от Вестминстерского аббатства находится Вестминстерский дворец, место заседания британского Парламента. Башня с часами на здании

Букингемский дворец — это официальная резиденция королевы.
Вест-Энд самая богатая и красивая часть Лондона. Это символ богатства и роскоши. Здесь находятся наилучшие гостиницы, магазины, рестораны, клубы и театры.
Трафальгарская площадь — географический центр Лондона. Она была названа в память о победе адмирала Нельсона в Трафальгарской битве в 1805 г. Высокая колонна Нельсона стоит посередине площади.
