LONDON CITY
London, England

London is the capital city of England and the United
Kingdom, and the largest city, urban zone and
metropolitan area in United Kingdom, and the
European Union by the most measures. Located on
the River Thames, London has been a major
settlement for two millennia, its history going back to
its founding by the Romans, who named it
Londinium.
London is a leading global city, with strengths
in
the
arts, commerce, education, entertainment, fa
shion, finance, healthcare, media, profession
al
services,
research
and
development, tourism and transport all
contributing to its prominence. London has
been described as a world cultural capital.
The etymology of London is uncertain. It is an ancient name
and can be found in sources from the 2nd century. It is
recorded as Londinium, which points to Romano-British
origin.

Richard Coates put forward an explanation in 1998 that it is
derived
from
the
pre-Celtic
Old
European
Language, “lowonida”, meaning 'river too wide to ford', and
suggested that this was a name given to the part of the River
Thames which flows through London.
RIVER THAMES
London has been described as a world cultural
capital. It is the world's most-visited city as
measured by international arrivals and has the
world's largest city airport system measured by
passenger traffic. London's 43 universities form
the largest concentration of higher education in
Europe. In 2012, London became the first city
to host the modern Summer Olympic Games
three times.
A multicultural city, London has a diverse range
of peoples and cultures, and more than 300
languages are spoken within its boundaries.
London has four World Heritage Sites: the
Tower of London, Kew Botanic Garden, the
Palace of Westminster, and St Margaret's
Church, National Maritime Museum, and the
historic settlement of Greenwich Observatory.
Other famous landmarks are Buckingham Palace, the London
Eye, Piccadilly Circus, St Paul's Cathedral, Tower
Bridge, Trafalgar Square, and The Shard.

London
is
home
to
numerous
museums, galleries, libraries, sporting events and other cultural
institutions, they are the British Museum, National Gallery, British
Library and 40 West End theatres. The Railway of London
Underground is the oldest underground railway network in the
world.

CLIMATE
London has a temperate oceanic climate, similar to much of southern
Britain. London has four seasons :

Winters are generally chilly to cold with frost usually occurring in the
suburbs on average twice a week from November to March. Snow
usually occurs about four or five times a year mostly from December
to February. Snowfall during March and April is rare but does occur
every two or three years.
Summers are generally warm and sometimes hot, the heat being
boosted by the urban heat island effect making the centre of London
