London Travel Guide - Pamela Harris - Bog

London is England's capital and is well known for Big Ben, Tower Bridge, Royal processions, high tea at the Ritz, cucumber sandwiches at Buckingham Palace and tailored suits on Savile Row. The image of a red double-decker bus and the red tunic of a Yeoman guard will always be associated with the city. London has seen the formation of major world trends like the late-1970s punk culture and is the place to hear Cockney rhyming slang. Today it is one of the world's most popular cities and tourist destinations.
