London draws people from all over the world. Some come on business, some come to study, to work or on holiday. London is naturally a very English city and it is very cosmopolitan, containing goods, food and entertainment, as well as people, from many countries of the world.
London spreads its influence over much of the southern areas of England; it gives work to millions of people who live not only in the inner city areas but in surrounding districts.
There is much in London which fascinates visitors and inspires the affection of Londoners: the splendor of the royal palaces and the Houses of Parliament, the dignity of St. Paul's Cathedral and many monuments and beautiful parks.
London shows examples of buildings that express all the different areas of its history.
Buckingham Palace is the official London residence of the Sovereign. The daily ceremony of the Changing of the Guards takes place in its courtyard. The palace was built in 1703 by the Duke of Buckingham.
Piccadilly Circus has become an important meeting point - for as well as sightseers. At its heart is a bronze fountain topped by a figure of a winded archer, known as Eros, the pagan god of love.
This area is now famous for its theatres, clubs and shops.
Whitehall is a street in central London running from Trafalgar Square to the Houses of Parliament and containing many important buildings and government offices, such as the Treasury, Admiralty and others. In the centre of the roadway stands the Cenotaph, the memorial to the fallen of both world wars. The Prime Minister's residence at No. 10 Downing Street is directly connected to Whitehall.
London is always full of life. The streets are crowded with traffic. High 'double-decker' buses rise above the smaller cars and vans.
The city of London today is the financial powerhouse of the country and one of the chief commercial centers of the western world.
The city has its own Lord Major, its own Government and its own police force. Here the medieval buildings stand side by side with modern glass high-rise offices.
The parks of London provide a welcome contrast to the great built-up areas. St.James's Park, Green Park, Hyde Park, and Kensington Gardens are linked together. They form 313 hectares of open parkland in the heart of London.

New year is my favourite holiday.I remember how I celebrated this holiday three years ago. I decorated the New Year tree myself. I prepared special gifts for my sister, my parents and my close friend Alex.
The 31-st of December was a special day at least for me because it was the last day of the year/ And the snow covered the roads, the roofs and the trees. Everything was white.It created very special misterious atmosphere. And the colorful lights were in the starry sky. I went out and played with snow balls with other children. At 10 my mother called me home. She baked a cake with the vanilla cream and I helped her to lay the holiday table.
I remember that year so clear. May be because it was snowy and may be just because I love this wonderful holiday. Перевод- Н.Г. -мой любимый праздник. Помню, как отмечал его 3 года назад. Я украсил сам елку, приготовил подарки для сестры, родит-лей, друга Алекса. 31 дек. был каким-то особенным, по крайней мере для меня .Ведь это был последний день года. Снег покрыл дороги, крыши, деревья.Это создало особую, волшебную атмосферу. В Звездном небе были разноцветные огни. Я вышел на улицу и играл с детьми в снежки. В 10 мама позвала меня домой . Она испекла торт с ванильным кремом и я помог ей накрывать праздничный стол. Я так ясно помню тот год. Может быть, потому что день был снежный, а может, потому что я люблю этот чудесный праздник.
