Презентация на тему Мои впечатления о Лондоне


My impression of London Made by London is the capital of Great Britain and one of the largest industrial and cultural centers in Europe The best starting point for all the excursions is well known Trafalgar square with Nelson’s Column in the center. The square was named to commemorate the victory of British vice-admiral Nelson at the battle of Trafalgar in 1805 and the Column is surmounted with his statue. This monument has made a great impression on me. Then I recommend you to see the Houses of Parliament on the north bank of the river Thames. It also has another name – the Palace of Westminster - as in the past here lived kings and queens. This ensemble is a remarkable example of Gothic architecture: the buildings seem to be directed high into the air and of course are worth seeing. And here you will find the famous Clock Tower, called “Big Ben”. The next stop is Westminster Abbey. It is a big church and a national shrine, a place, where English kings and queens are crowned and famous people are buried. Everybody has heard about Saint Paul’s Cathedral. It is the largest Protestant Church in England and a remarkable architectural masterpiece. And at the end you should see the majestic and dreary Tower of London, which has an abundant history. Now it’s a museum where you can see the Crown Jewels - the finest precious stones of the English nation and a great collection of armour. No doubt that in London there are many other sights – Tate Gallery, City, Hyde Park and others, and everyone will find a preference according to his taste. You should only remember that in this city you will get fresh impressions, take great delight in viewing monuments and discover the history of England. I think it necessary that every person should visit London!
