Buckingham Palace is an official residence of the Queen and her family. It isn’t open to the public. It has 600 rooms, a swimming pool, a cinema, a ballroom, and a garden, which is like a private park.
In summer the Queen gives three garden parties for about 9,000 guests. The ceremony of the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace is a great tourist attraction. It takes place daily at 11.30 a.m. and lasts half an hour. To the sound of music, the guardsmen arrive and pass the palace keys to another group.
Teacher. Well done. Go on. My children! Look there is Trafalgar Square on the left. Dasha, can you tell us about this popular place? Yes, I can. You are welcome.

Trafalgar Square is in the centre of London. It was built in 1828. In the middle of Trafalgar Square is Nelson’s Column. Admiral Nelson defeated the French at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. From that time English men wear black ties.
This Column is fifty meters high. A lot of demonstrations and public meetings take place here. It’s a famous square where on New Year’s Eve people gather to celebrate.

The big clock on the tower of the Palace of Westminster in London is called Big Ben. It is the biggest clock bell in Britain. It weighs 13.5 tons.
The clock tower is 318 feet high. You have to go up 374 steps to reach the top. The minute-hand is 14 feet long. The hour-hand is 9 feet long.
The clock bell is called Big Ben after Sir Benjamin Hall. He had the job to see that the bell was put up.
Sir Benjamin was a big man. One day he said in Parliament, "Shall we call the bell St. Stephen's?" St. Stephen's is the name of the tower.
But someone said for a joke, "Why not call it Big Ben?" Now the bell is known all over the world by that name.
Well done. Go on. My children! Look, there is Tower Bridge in front of us. Vika and Helen did a project about it. Are you ready? Yes

The bridge became one of London's most famous symbols. you can also go inside the bridge, where you'll have a magnificent view over London from the walkway between the two bridge towers. Inside the bridge is the Tower bridge Exhibition Visitors can learn about the history of the bridge via photos, films, and other media..Well done. Go on. My children!

The Tower of London is a very old building – nine hundred years old. In the early days of England the British (English) kings lived in the Tower. Then it was a prison where many people died. Black ravens had much food near the walls оf the Tower in those days.
Now it’s a museum. Many tourists from other countries come to see it. They see the dark stone halls with small windows and thick doors. The Tower is still guarded by the famous Beefeaters who wear a traditional Sixteenth century uniform.
