London

London is one of the oldest and most exciting cities on Earth. Nearly two thousand years ago, Roman soldiers built a settlement on the banks of the River Thames, and ever since then, London has grown into a buzzing, brilliant capital that mixes ancient history with modern life around every corner.

Walking through London feels like stepping through time. You might hear the deep, resonant bong of Big Ben echoing across the city, watch the famous Tower Bridge slowly lift apart to let a tall ship glide beneath it, or stand outside Buckingham Palace hoping to spot whether the King is home. The Tower of London alone has spent a thousand years being a palace, a prison, and a treasure vault — all in one building!

What really makes London extraordinary is just how much there is to discover. The city is absolutely overflowing with museums, and the British Museum alone holds millions of incredible objects from civilisations all across human history. Whatever you’re curious about, London has something waiting for you.
