Hello. My name is John.
I take you to an interesting
church in London near the
Houses of Parliament. Every
king or queen of the UK is
crowned there.
My name is Megan.
I give you some information about the history of London.
At the time of the Romans, London was a small town called Londinium. In
the 9th century, King Alfred of England
made London the capital of his kingdom.
Over the centuries London has become an
important metropolis which surrounds the
City of London and the City of Westminster. Today more than seven million people
live in London.

bigger and bigger. Then the port

Today there are offices, hotels and
blocks of flats. What’s the name of
