Product description

London: A City in Pictures is a visual memento and celebration of the city’s unique character and rich mix of diverse cultures.

With the majestic River Thames flowing through its heart, London is home to the Royal Family, a hub of finance, a seat of government, a center for the arts and host to international sporting events. This book forms a tour of the city’s historic streets of medieval and classical architecture, sumptuous palaces and distinctive bridges, and modern skyscrapers such as The Shard. It captures the rich characters of Soho and Chinatown, London’s quaint squares and verdant parks, the vibrant theaters, the ubiquitous London pub, the fine museums and art galleries and the stadia that host sporting spectacles from Wimbledon to the World Cup.
