London, the capital city of England, the home of the British Parliament (at Westminster, London), and previously the metropole of the world’s largest empire – also known as the purse of the empire.
London is most famous for its royal history (typically for most since the reign of Henry VIII in the 1500s), but for many the more recent history and events concerning Queen Elizabeth II, Charles III, Prince William, Princess Kate, the Duke of Edinburgh Prince Phillip, and of course, Princess Diana.
But not everyone is interested in royal matters or history, it is often the case people just want to the see the iconic sights such as Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace, Tower Bridge (not London Bridge even though that’s what they say)… and who can forget the iconic red telephone boxes, London black cabs, double decker buses or the bobbies on the beat!
London is famous for all of this, but what people don’t take it consideration is that London is accredited for many famous and commonplace aspects of life that don’t necessarily make it famous… but it certainly has it at the heart of it all. Famous expressions, momentous events that impacted global history, fashion trends, musical genius, films, tv and more, it has been at the heart of everything from religious reform, industrial revolution (though not necessarily the manufacturing), abolition of slavery, suffrage for women and much much more!
