I read a factfile book, "London." This book is written about London, so if you are interested in this country, you should read it! This book has ten contents such as about city, building, museum shopping and food. So, I'll introduce some of the parts which I am interested in.
First, I'll tell you about city. London is a great city. Two thousand years ago, London was a small village by the River Thames. Then the Romans came and built a town, and thousands of people lived there. And now, in the twenty -first centry, London is the biggest city in Britain and has more than seven million people. I think the most famous building is The Houses of Parliament and Big Ben. It is the home of the British government. The clock high up on the building is called Big Ben, but really Big Ben is the bell in the clock. It is so big! You have must hear this name, 'Big Ben.' I want to visit there someday.
Next is about famous things in London. The British Museum in Great Russell Street is the biggest museum in Britain, and the oldest museum in the world. It opened in 1759. There are 94 galleries, a reading room, and bookshops. You can learn about London and its people from its earliest times. If you want to know more the history of London, I recommend you go there. I'm interested in the museum, so I want to go someday. In addition, there are a lot of shop and delicious dishes. But, many of the most famous shop is too expensive. That is 'Harrods.' Maybe you hear or see the word before. Oxford Street has many big shop, for example, Selfridges, Marks and Spencer, Debenhams. So we can enjoy shopping. When I have money and time, I want to go there and have a great time. If you want to go in Europe, let's go to London!
