London is the capital city of England and the United Kingdom. Its history spans nearly 2000 years, beginning with the arrival of the Romans soon after their invasion of Britain in AD43. London City is made up of two ancient cities which are now joined together – The City and the City of Westminster. London still retains its tiny mediaeval boundaries; but the name "London" has long applied more generally to the whole metropolis which has grown up around it.

London is situated on the banks of the river Thames, in South East England. It is a major tourist destination, with four world heritage sites and numerous iconic landmarks such as the Houses of Parliament, Tower Bridge, the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace and the London Eye among its many attractions, along with famous institutions such as the British Museum and the National Gallery.
