Westminster Today For centuries, Westminster was the political and religious center, but today Westminster is the center of government. Westminster Hall was built in 1099 by the son of William the Conqueror and is one of the largest medieval halls. It was part of the Westminster Palace, which was destroyed by a fire in 1834. The Houses of Parliament that we see today were rebuilt in the 19th century after the fire. The Big Ben clock tower is the largest four-sided ringing clock in the world and it is also one of the London's most famous symbols. Some think that Big Ben is the name of the clock on the tower, but actually it is the name of the big 13-ton bell that rings every fifteen minutes. The most historic religious building in Britain is Westminster Abbey, a beautiful church across the street from the Houses of Parliament. It was begun between 1042 and 1065 when the English king Edward the Confessor built a churc...

Isaac Newton Newtoni sünd Kesk-Inglismaal, Lincolni krahvkonnas, Granthami linnakesest umbes 10 km lõuna pool, asub Woolsthrope´i küla. Seal külas, Woolsthrope´i mõisa härrastemajas, sündis esimesel jõulupühal 25.detsembril 1642.a. Isaac Newton. Tema sünd oli enneaegne ja juuresolijad ei lootnud, et ta elama jääb. Inimesed, kes naaberkülla rohu järele saadeti, olid tagasi tulles väga imestunud, kui nägid, et laps veel elus on. Hoolimata nõrgast tervisest ja väikesest kasvust oma esimestel eluaastatel, oli Newtoni tervis kogu eluaeg üldiselt laitmatu ja seda ta 84 aastase elu jooksul. Newtoni perekond Newtoni isa, kelle nimi oli samuti Isaac, suri 36.aastaselt, paar kuud enne poja sündimist. Küll aga ei jäänud Newton kauaks isata, sest kui Isaac oli kolmeaastane, läks tema ema mehele preestrile Barnabas Smith´ile. Pärast seda jäi poisi eest hoolitsema vanaema, kuna ema kolis preestri juurde elama. Võõrasisa Smi...

LONDON The history of the town is very closely linked with the history of the country itself. The name probably comes from the celtic words Llyn, which means a lake, and Dun, which means a fort or a strong place. Although the site was not important during the Celtic period (400 BC 43 AD) During the Roman occupation Londinium, as it was called then, was not influential politically, but was, however an important crossing point for the romans over the river Thames. Londinium was at a very good place, so it soon became a trading centre. In AD 61 the city was devastated by Boudicca, who led a revolt againt the Roman conquest of Britain. The city was burned down and its inhabitants massacred. London was rapidly rebuilt, becoming the capital of the province Britannia. AD 122 Roman walls were built around it as a Around AD 400 the Anglo-Saxons invaded Britain. They destroyed the roman towns and formed many kingdoms that were hostile to one a...

London History The Romans AD 43- AD 410 The Romans finally invaded Britain in AD 43 from Kent. The Romans lead by Julius Caesar attempted to invade Britain twice before that in 55 and 54 BC but the invasions were unsuccessful. They made their way to the river Thames and sailed up it. The Romans knew it was important to control a crossing point at the river Thames, so they decided to build a settlement on the north bank. Although small settlements had been built on the banks of the Thames, the Romans were the ones who built the first city. They called their city Londinium. The Roman engineers noticed that the point where the swampy river narrowed would make an ideal crossing point, they built London Bridge. Less than 20 years later the native Iceni tribe, led by Queen Boudicca, rose up against the Romans in revenge for mistreatment and burnt Londinium to the ground. The well disciplined Roman army defeated her forces and Londinium was r...
London London is the UK's largest and most populous metropolitan area and the largest urban zone in the European Union by most measures. In July 2007 it had an official population of 7,556,900 within the boundaries of Greater London, making it the most populous municipality in the European Union. History: The first major settlement was founded by the Romans in 43 AD. Canute took control of the English throne in 1016, controlling the city and country until 1035, when his death resulted in a reversion to Saxon control under his pious stepson Edward the Confessor, who refounded Westminster Abbey and the adjacent Palace of Westminster. By this time, London had become the largest and most prosperous city in England, although the official seat of government was still at Winchester. In the 16th century William Shakespeare and his contemporaries lived in London at a time of hostility to the develop...

Charles Dickens was born in 1812 in Portsmouth. His father was a clerk who earned relatively little money. In 1822 his family moved to London and Charles's education was interrupted by need to take poorly-paid work in factory because his father got into debt and imprisoned. In 1823 he became solicitor's clerk and a year later a newspaper reporter. His first short story was published in 1825 anonymously without payment and later he began writing under pen name `Boz' and described conditions of poverty in England. Ten years later he married Catherine Hogarth with whom he had 10 children. In 1842 he visited USA where he was treated as a celebrity because he was very well-known there. Between 1837 and 1865 some of his finest writings were published, many of them in instalments or monthly parts such as Oliver Twist and Christmas Carol. When Dickens and his wife separated in 1858, he began to work very hard and at his health, he eventually be...

No trip to London would be complete without a visit to the Tower of London. This famous historical site has been the living quarters of monarchs. It has been a site of imprisonment and execution of many traitors, clergymen, nobles and framed members of the royal court and was also an armory, treasury, zoo and mint. Today it houses the crown jewels and has a museum filled with armor, weapons and implements of torture. Another popular tourist sight is the London eye. Constructed by British Airways, it towers 135 meters above the banks of the Thames River. It is located near Big Ben and Westminster Abbey, on the opposite bank, adjacent to London's county hall.
