The name London comes from the Romans who came to England in AD 43.

They built houses and other buildings and made a town on the both banks of the

River Thames. They called the town Londinium. It became a rich town with about

50,000 people living in it. But soon after AD 400, the Romans left Londinium to

go back to Rome, and nobody lived in the town for many hundreds of years until in

1066, William the Conqueror came to England from France to be king.

London covers 600 square miles with the population over eight million

people. It consists of 32 district called “boroughs” some of which were small

towns before. They are Greenwich, Chelsea, Paddington and others. Traditionally,

London can be divided into 3 main parts – East end, West End and the City. In the

center of London there are two small towns from which it has grown up – The City

and Westminster.

The City contains most financial institution of GB. It is commercial center

of the country. About half a million people come to work there every day. But on

weekends it almost deserted, except crowds of tourists visiting St Pauls’ Cathedral,

the Tower and other sights. The local authority for the City, namely the City of

London Corporation, is unique in the UK and has some unusual responsibilities for

a local council, such as being the police authority. It is also unusual in having

responsibilities and ownerships beyond its boundaries. The Corporation is headed

by the Lord Mayor of the City of London, an office separate from the Mayor of

London.

Westminster is not far away from the City. It includes Houses of Parliament,

Buckingham Palace, and government offices named Whitehall. In addition to royal

and political building it contains institutions important to intellectual and cultural

life of the country: University of London, British museum, National and Tate

gallery. Westminster is only a part of West End. The West End is worth visiting. It

includes historical places, famous parks, large hotels and shops. Reach people

enjoy spending their free time and money there. This name is always associated

with luxury and wealth.

The fashionable West End is quite different from the East End which is

situated behind the port of London. It is the workers region, is made up of great

industrial arears. East End is not a very attractive part of London with poor houses

of people who work in the docks and factories. English people are used to name

the City “the money of London”, the West End “the goods of London” and the

East End “the arms of London”. London size and population, its traditions and

historical associations, its trade and industries make it one of the greatest cities of

the world.
