LONDON
The City on the Edge of Forever
There are few
destinations in the world where one can experience the joys
and pleasures of modern living along with the class and
culture of days gone by. Just think of London and immediately
beautiful visions come to mind of Beefeaters in heraldic garb
carrying halberds while guarding the Tower of London, of grand
palaces, castles and manors where dukes and duchesses, princes
and princesses, kings and queens once lived. (and in some
cases still do).
We think of
red double-decker buses and telephone boxes, of neon lights in
Piccadilly Circus, of concert halls and theatres and of
churches and cathedrals that are a testament to architecture
as they are to faith. London, glorious London is truly the
city on the edge of forever - immortal, never-aging, eternal
in its charms.
The city's magnetic attractions include Buckingham Palace,
Westminster Abbey, St. Paul’s Cathedral, Trafalgar Square, Kew
Gardens, London Zoo and Hyde Park, among the many interesting
spots in this lovely city. |
