A1. Dear guests! You are welcome to London.

If you want to see the historical places of London, you can join our tour. You’ll make a ship trip along Thames and enjoy the sightseeing.  From Fleet Street we’ll go for a walk to St. Paul’s Cathedral. It is the most famous church in London. St. Paul’s serves as the centre of the church of England in London. The great English architect Sir Christopher Wren built the church between 1675 and 1710 to replace the original St. Paul’s, which was destroyed in the Great Fire of 1666.The church’s huge dome towers 111 metres above the ground. Its dome has become a symbol of London throughout the world.

     Then we take the bus and go to the Tower of London. The   Tower of London is London’s oldest landmark. It was built around the central White Tower in the 11^th century. It was begun by William the Conqueror in 1078.The Tower of London served as a fortress, a palace, a zoo and a prison. Today it is a national monument and museum. The Beefeaters guard the Tower.  A group of ravens live at the Tower. The legend says that without the Tower will fall. The Raven Master is the person who gives them food.

      Now we go to the river station, come on the board of ship and go down the Thames River to the  Houses of Parliament.

      In front of us you can see the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben. The Houses of Parliament is the seat of British Government. It is a very large Gothic building. It stands on the left bank of the river Thames and is 280 metres in length. There is only one building there but it is called the Houses , because it is divided into the House of Commons and the House of Lords. It has two Towers: Big Ben and Victoria Towers. Big Ben is the huge clock on the Clock Tower. Opposite the Houses of Parliament you will see Westminster Abbey. It’s a royal church. Westminster Abbey is one of the oldest buildings in London. Many kings and queens and famous people were buried there. The Abbey has been the scene of every royal coronation since William the Conqueror   in 1066. All kings and queens were crowned there. In Poets Corner many famous British poets,   writers,   novelists are buried: Chaucer, Shakespeare, Walter Scott and Shelly.

W hen the Queen is staying in the palace the Royal Standard flag flies above the central balcony. The palace has its own post office. About 400 people work at the palace. The Queen and Prince Philip have rooms on the first floor. There are about 600 rooms at the Palace. There about twenty Rolls Royces with royal coat of arms. Five regiments of Food Guards guard outside the palace. The Guards is changed at 11.30 when Queen is in residence. The Grenadiers are the tallest and the finest soldiers no less 1.90 m.
