TEXT 1

London is the capital of both England and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and the largest metropolitan area in the European Union. An important settlement for two millennia, London's history goes back to its founding by the Romans. The city continued to grow and develop to what we see today, always combining the past with the present. The city's core, the ancient City of London, still retains its limited medieval boundaries; but since at least the 19th century, the name "London" has also referred to the whole metropolis that has developed around it.

London is one of the world's most important business, financial and cultural centres and its influence in politics, education, entertainment, media, fashion and the arts contributes to its status as a major global city. Central London is the headquarters of more than half of the UK's top 100 listed companies. The city is a major tourist destination for both domestic and overseas visitors.

Since 1965 Greater London has been divided into 32 London boroughs in addition to the ancient City of London.

The City of London is one of the world's three largest financial centres (alongside New York and Tokyo). The City has its own governance and boundaries, giving it a status as the only completely autonomous local authority in London.

The West End is London's main entertainment and shopping district, with locations such as Oxford Street, Leicester Square, Covent Garden and Piccadilly Circus acting as tourist magnets. The West London area is known for fashionable and expensive residential areas, where properties can sell for tens of millions of pounds.

The eastern region of London contains the East End and East London. The East End is the area closest to the original Port of London, known for its immigrant population, as well as for being one of the poorest areas in London.

The largest parks in the central area of London are the Royal Parks of Hyde Park and its neighbour Kensington Gardens at the western edge of central London and Regent's Park on the northern edge. This park contains London Zoo, the world's oldest scientific zoo, and is located near the tourist attraction of Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum.

London is home to many museums, galleries, and other institutions which are major tourist attractions. The Natural History Museum (biology and geology), Science Museum and Victoria and Albert Museum (fashion and design) are clustered in South Kensington's "museum quarter", while the British Museum houses historic artefacts from around the world.
