PHRASES TO USE: Ladies and gentlemen! I’m … I’m happy to meet you here, at… I’m sure you know that it’s one of the most attractive places in London.

THE TOWER OF LONDON

The Tower of London is one of the most ancient buildings in London. It was founded by William the Conqueror in 1078. For many centuries it was a fortress, a palace, a royal treasury, a menagerie and a prison. Now it’s a museum of arms and a place where Crown Jewels and other treasures are kept. There are six ravens in the Tower. They have names, live in their own cages and get money every month. There

is a legend that if ravens leave the Tower, the Tower and then British monarchy will

fall.

WESTMINSTER ABBEY

Westminster Abbey was built in about 1050. It’s a fine Gothic building, famous for

its architecture and historical associations. It’s used for the coronations, royal weddings,

funerals and memorial services of great people. There is the Tomb to the Unknown Soldier who represents all those falling during World War I. There is Poet’s Corner with

the tombs and memorials to a lot of prominent British poets and writers. Many great scientists including Darwin and Newton are buried here.

THE HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT

The Houses of Parliament is the seat of the British Government. It was founded

in 1840 and has two towers: the Clock Tower with the bell Big Ben in it and the

Victoria Tower with the British flag on it. Big Ben is the main clock of Britain. It has four faces and a very big loud bell. The manager of the construction was named Sir Benjamin Hall who was very tall. That’s why people called the Clock Tower Big Ben.

BUCKINGHAM PALACE

Buckingham Palace is the British monarch’s main residence in London. It was built in 1703 and has 600 rooms. When the flag is on the top of the Palace, it means that the Queen is at home. Every day at 11.30 a.m. you can see the Changing of the Guard.

Once a year on the first or second Saturday of June Londoners celebrate the official birthday of the Queen. On this day the parade (Trooping the Colour) is held. Thousands of Londoners and tourists come there to see Queen’s troops in full dress, the Queen and her family.

TRAFALGAR SQUARE

Trafalgar Square was laid between 1829-1841 to commemorate the famous victory of Admiral Nelson over the French at Trafalgar. The Nelson column is in the middle of the square. The statue of Admiral Nelson faces the sea he loved. The column is surrounded by four bronze lions. The two beautiful fountains were added later. Now Trafalgar Square is the traditional place for mass meetings.

ST. PAUL’S CATHEDRAL

It was built by Sir Christopher Wren between 1675-1710. It is one of the largest

cathedrals in the world. It took Wren thirty-five years to build it. Major ceremonial functions took place here, among them the funerals of Admiral Nelson, the Duke of Wellington and Sir Winston Churchill, as well as the Silver Jubilee Service for Elizabeth II and the wedding of the Prince of Wales. Sir Christopher Wren, who devoted his life to the creation masterpieces, including this cathedral, is also buried

here.
