Greater London Trip Overview
I wrote this tour about Whitehall which is one of my favourite places in London. It is a thousand years old and many of the great buildings of London are here like Big Ben and the Westminster Abbey. Some of the events that shaped this country took place here on this street. The story of how a small island kingdom became a global empire is in these stones and buildings.
