景点
伦敦塔桥(Tower Bridge ,London )是一座吊桥,最初为一木桥,后改为石桥,现在是座拥有6条车道的水泥结构桥。河中的两座桥基高7.6米,相距76米,桥基上建有两座高耸的方形主塔,为花岗岩和钢铁结构的方形五层塔,高40多米,两座主塔上建有白色大理石屋顶和五个小尖塔,远看仿佛两顶王冠。两塔之间的跨度为60多米,塔基和两岸用钢缆吊桥相连。桥身分为上、下两层,上层(桥面高于高潮水位约42米) 为宽阔的悬空人行道,两侧装有玻璃窗,行人从桥上通过,可以饱览泰晤士河两岸的美丽风光;下层可供车辆通行。当泰晤士河上有万吨船只通过时,主塔内机器启动,桥身慢慢分开,向上折起,船只过后,桥身慢慢落下,恢复车辆通行。两块活动桥面,各自重达1000吨。从远处观望塔桥,双塔高耸,极为壮丽。桥塔内设楼梯上下,内设博物馆、展览厅、商店、酒吧等。登塔远眺,可尽情欣赏泰晤士河上下游十里风光。假若遇上薄雾锁桥,景观更为一绝,雾锁塔桥是伦敦胜景之一。

Its collection spans 5000 years of art, from ancient times to the present day, in virtually every medium, from the cultures of Europe, North America, Asia and North Africa. The museum is a non-departmental public body sponsored by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport.

Alongside other neighbouring institutions, including the Natural History Museum and Science Museum, the V&A is located in what is termed London's "Albertopolis", an area of immense cultural, scientific and educational importance. Since 2001, the Museum has embarked on a major £150m renovation program[3] which has seen a major overhaul of the departments including the introduction of newer galleries, gardens, shops and visitor facilities.

It is popularly known as Big Ben, but this name is actually a nickname for the clock's main bell. The tower has also been referred to as St. Stephen's Tower or The Tower of Big Ben, in reference to its bell. Structure The tower was raised as a part of Charles Barry's design for a new palace, after the old Palace of Westminster was destroyed by fire on the night of October 16, 1834. The tower is designed in the Victorian Gothic style, and is 96.3 metres (316 feet) high. The first 61 metres (250 feet) of the structure is the clock tower, consisting of brickwork with stone cladding; the remainder of the tower's height is a framed spire of cast iron. The tower is founded on a 15 by 15 metre (49 by 49 foot) raft, made of 3-metre (9-foot) thick concrete, at a depth of 7 metres (23 feet) below ground level. The four clock faces are 55 metres (180 feet) above ground. Due to ground conditions present since construction, the tower leans slightly to the north-west, by roughly 220 millimetres (8.66
inches). Due to thermal effects it oscillates annually by a few millimetres east and west. Clock faces The clock faces were once large enough to allow the Clock Tower to be the largest four-faced clock in the world, but have since been outdone by the Allen-Bradley Clock Tower in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The builders of the Allen-Bradley Clock Tower did not add chimes to the clock, so the Great Clock of Westminster still holds the title of the "world's largest four-faced chiming clock." The clock mechanism itself was completed by 1854, but the tower was not fully constructed until four years later in 1858. The clock and dials were designed by Augustus Pugin. The clock faces are set in an iron framework 21 feet (7 metres) in diameter, supporting 576 pieces of opal glass, rather like a stained glass window. Some of the glass pieces may be removed for inspection of the hands. The surround of the dials is heavily gilded. At the base of each clock face in gilt letters is the Latin inscription 'DOMINE SALVAM FAC REGINAM NOSTRAM VICTORIAM PRIMAM' meaning 'O Lord, keep safe our queen Victoria the First'. The clock became operational on September 7, 1859. During World War II, the Palace of Westminster was hit by German bombing, destroying the House of Commons and causing damage to the tower's western clockface. The main bell The main bell, officially known as the Great Bell, is the largest bell in the tower and part of the Great Clock of Westminster. The bell is better known by the nickname Big Ben.

伦敦眼The London Eye,是世界上首座、也曾经是世界最大的观景摩天轮。它于1999年年底开幕,总高度135米(443英尺),耸立於泰晤士河南畔的贝兰斯区,面向威斯敏斯特宫与大本钟。
伦敦塔桥(Tower Bridge,London )是一座吊桥,最初为一木桥,后改为石桥,现在是座拥有6条车道的水泥结构桥。河中的两座桥基高7.6米,相距76米,桥基上建有两座高耸的方形主塔,为花岗岩和钢铁结构的方形五层塔,高40多米,两座主塔上建有白色大理石屋顶和五个小尖塔,远看仿佛两顶王冠。两塔之间的跨度为60多米,塔
基和两岸用钢缆吊桥相连。桥身分为上、下两层,上层(桥面高于高潮水位约
42米) 为宽阔的悬空人行道,两侧装有玻璃窗,行人从桥上通过,可以饱览泰
晤士河两岸的美丽风光;下层可供车辆通行。当泰晤士河上有万吨船只通过 时,主塔内机器启动,桥身慢慢分 开,向上折起,船只过后,桥身慢慢落下,
恢复车辆通行。两块活动桥面,各自重达1000吨。从远处观望塔桥,双塔高
耸,极为壮丽。桥塔内设楼梯上下,内设博物馆、展览厅、商店、酒吧等。 登塔远眺,可尽情欣赏泰晤士河上下游十里风光。假若遇上薄雾锁桥,景观 更为一绝,雾锁塔桥是伦敦胜景之一。 从桥上或河畔,可以望见停在不远处

Stonehenge 巨石阵
巨石阵是英格兰西南部索尔兹伯里平原上和一处古代遗址。一群粗糙切凿的巨石块兀立而围成圆阵。几个世纪以来,这些巨石块一直与神秘和离奇的传说联系在一起,因为没有人真正知道这巨石阵的用途。有许多关于巨石块的推测。有些非常复杂,甚至荒诞。但是,还没有一个推测得到证实。巨石阵的建筑是从元前3000年—公元前1100年分3个阶段进行的,从挖掘圆环形的沟渠和土堤开始。巨石阵的大外环建于约公元前2100年—公元前2000年。在大外环内竖立着一个较小的石环。而两组呈马蹄形排列的巨石块则分布在小石环内。最近一种流行的说法是巨石块有天文现象的功用。巨石块与一年中白昼最长一

推薦景點三:國會大樓parliament building與大笨鐘big ben
Big Ben is the colloquial name of the Clock Tower of the Palace of Westminster in
London and an informal name for the Great Bell of Westminster, part of the Great
Clock of Westminster. The clock tower is located at the northwestern end of the
building, the home of the Houses of Parliament, and contains the famous striking
clock and bell. The new Parliament was built in a Neo-gothic style. Although Barry
was the chief architect of the Palace, he turned to Augustus Pugin for the design of the
clock tower, which resembles earlier Pugin designs, including one for Scarisbrick
Hall. The design for the Clock Tower was Pugin's last design before his final descent
into madness and death, and Pugin himself wrote, at the time of Barry's last visit to
him to collect the drawings: "I never worked so hard in my life for Mr Barry for
tomorrow I render all the designs for finishing his bell tower & it is beautiful."[6] The
tower is designed in Pugin's celebrated Gothic Revival style, and is 96.3 metres
(315.9 ft) high.

something for everyone in Hyde Park. With over 4,000 trees, a lake, a meadow, horse

When King Henry VIII and his court were thundering across Hyde Park in 1536 in
pursuit of deer and wild boar, it would have been difficult to visualise that years later
the noble art of tai chi would be peacefully performed among the trees in the early
morning, and the Italianate tenor of Pavarotti would echo across the park, applauded
by vast audiences.

London Bridge is a bridge between the City of London and Southwark in London, England, over the River Thames.

推荐景点十:大英博物馆 The British Museum.
The British Museum was established in 1753, largely based on the collections of the
physician and scientist Sir Hans Sloane. The museum first opened to the public on 15 January 1759 in Montagu House in Bloomsbury, on the site of the current museum building. Its expansion over the following two and a half centuries has resulted in the creation of several branch institutions, the first being the British Museum (Natural History) in South Kensington in 1887. Until 1997, when the British Library opened to the public, the British Museum was unique in that it housed both a national museum of antiquities and a national library in the same building. Its present chairman is Sir John Boyd and its director is Neil MacGregor.
As with all other national museums and art galleries in Britain, the Museum charges no admission fee, although charges are levied for some temporary special exhibitions.
The construction of tower bridge began in 1885 and it was opened 9yrs later by edward vii the then prince of wales, amidst pomp and ceremony. it is the only bridge in london that can be raised to allow ships to pass. since the thames is no longer used much as a trade and shipping route, the complex lifting mechanism is only used 4 or 5 times a week. the tower bridge is often mistaken for london bridge which is dull in comparison.
The Tower was finished twenty years later, rising nearly one hundred feet high, with its walls fifteen feet thick in certain places. Inside was a chapel, apartments, guardrooms, and crypts. The Tower was protected by a wide ditch, a new stone wall, the old Roman wall, and the river. This was done to secure the fact that this tower was a prison that no prisoner would escape from.
The Bishop of Durham was probably the Tower's first distinguished prisoner. He was very fat, greedy , and unpopular. He was dragged to the prison by his brother with his
servants and bags of money . But the Bishop lived very well inside the Tower because he could bribe the guards with gold. One night in February ,1101, he gave a huge banquet with a lot of food and liquor. When he had gotten the guards very drunk, he pushed his bags through a window and slid down a rope to freedom.
