London is one of the world's most cosmopolitan cities with people, culture and cuisine from around the world! From its beginning as Roman Londinium to its stint as the center of the Empire upon which the sun never set, is there any city in the world more associated with the history of the past 20 centuries?
History isn't something you read in a book. Here, it's in every step you take and every stone you touch. William the Conqueror, Prince John, Geoffrey Chaucer, Elizabeth I, Shakespeare, Isaac Newton, Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Queen Victoria, Charles Darwin, and Winston Churchill? Not dead at all... they're your neighbors!
