London

London is so cool. They got lots people and the food tastes great. The prices of things is so different. I got to see Big Ben.
Interesting facts
1)London stands on the southeast of England and is the capital city of United Kingdom.
2)London is the most densely populated area in Britain and is the ninth largest city in the world.
3)London is formed by two ancient cities - City of London and City of Westminster, both cities forming the region of Greater London.
4)During the time of the Roman Invasion, London was known as Londinium. In Saxon times, it was known as Lundenwic and during the kingdom of Alfred the Great, its name was changed to Lundenburg.
5)Contrary to what many people believe, ‘Big Ben’in Londonis not the name of the clock or the tower, but a 13-ton bell inside the clock. The tower is known as St. Stephen’s Tower.
