London is the capital of the United Kingdom and has been a large city for a long time.  It's served by six airports, a number of large train stations and has a comprehensive transport network.

As the seat of the monarchy and government, and at the heart of the Commonwealth, the city is steeped in history.  Regular events are watched all over the world and there's a long list of iconic sites to enjoy.  Westminster Abbey, Tower of London, British Museum, Buckingham Palace, Changing the Guard, Churchill War Rooms and so much more await.
