Welcome to London, the capital of England and the United Kingdom, a leading and vibrant global city. Your Local Hosts will help you make the

Take photographs of the London Eye, the giant Ferris wheel situated on the riverbank, and the Shard, the tallest building in Western Europe. Visit ST. PAUL’S CATHEDRAL.
