London is the capital of the United Kingdom. Situated on the banks of the River Thames, London has been an important human settlement since it was founded by the Romans under the name of Londinium almost two millennia ago.
The urban area of Greater London, with 10,470,000 inhabitants, is the second largest in Europe, but its metropolitan area, with an estimated population of between 12 and 14 million, is the largest on the continent.
London is a global city, one of the nerve centers in the field of arts, commerce, education, entertainment, fashion, finance, the media, research, tourism and transport. It is the main financial center of the world along with New York.
London has four World Heritage Sites: the Tower of London, the Royal Botanical Garden at Kew, the site formed by the Palace, Westminster Abbey, St. Margaret's Church, and Greenwich (where the Royal Observatory is located, which marks the Greenwich meridian and mean time). Other famous places in the city are Buckingham Palace, the London Eye, Piccadilly Circus, St. Paul's Cathedral, Towers Bridge or Trafalgar Square. London also has numerous museums, art galleries, libraries, sporting events and other cultural institutions such as the British Museum, the National Gallery, the Tate Modern, the British Library and the forty theaters of the West End. The London Underground, which was 150 years old in 2013, is the oldest in the world.
