"London Bridge owes its name to the fact that it was the first bridge built over the Thames, originally instated by the first Romans that settled here."
When walking across stunning Millennium Bridge, it always makes me feel like a tourist in my own city.
Thomas Holmes
I love the buzz of the City at dusk and the stunning architecture along the cityscape. It really makes me excited to live in London.

The majesty of St Paul's Cathedral's architecture and the historical significance is amazing...
The cathedral is what makes the area so great. there are tourists but it is not annoyingly busy. It's vibrant and lively but quiet on the weekends. When you are in the City you know you are in London.
