London is the capital of England and of the United Kingdom. It was established as a civilian town by the Romans about seven years after the invasion of AD43; however, there is evidence of prehistoric settlement in London dating from at least a thousand years before that. The name Londinium is thought to be pre-Celtic in origin and although there has been no academic consensus, it probably means "the flowing river".

During London's 2,000 years of recorded history, it has experienced plague, devastating fire, civil war and two world wars, yet it has grown to become one of the most important business, financial and cultural capitals in the world.

The city is a major tourist destination, with four world heritage sites and numerous iconic landmarks such as the Houses of Parliament, Tower Bridge, the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey and the London Eye amongst its many attractions, along with famous institutions such as the British Museum and the National Gallery.

London is made up of 32 boroughs, plus the City of London borough, and about 22 per cent of London's population were born outside of the UK, which is what makes it such an ethnically-mixed and culturally-diverse city.

Travel around London on public transport is easy and frequent. The London Underground (more commonly known as "The Tube") serves 275 stations and there are hundreds of bus routes serving the city and suburban areas. London has five main train stations:-Waterloo, Victoria, St. Pancras, Paddington and Euston, with trains running to all of Britain's major cities. St Pancras station is also the terminus for the Eurostar train to Paris.

With a large port and five international airports, London is a major international transport hub. Its main airport at Heathrow carries more international passengers than any other airport in the world.

Victoria refers to an informal area that lies within the City of Westminster. So-called because of London Victoria train station, the area is vaguely defined by the streets around the station including Victoria Street, the northern section of Buckingham Palace Rd, Wilton Rd, Grosvenor Gardens, Bressenden Place and Eccleston Street.

Victoria station is a London Underground and National Rail station and the closest to the Queen at Buckingham Palace but which she'll rarely use as her first choice of transportation. Victoria is also close to Green Park, St James's Park, Hyde Park Corner and the popular districts of Mayfair and Chelsea.

Just west of Victoria is Westminster, the seat of England'ss parliament for almost a thousand years. Across the River Thames, in Vauxhall and Lambeth, are Whitehall and London City Council.

Victoria Street runs on a east-west axis from the station to Broad Sanctuary at Westminster Abbey along which are restaurants, banks, retailers, a Marks and Spencer and a House of Fraser. At the end of Broad Sanctuary is the Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform, the headquarters of Transport for London and New Scotland Yard, the headquarters of the Metropolitan Police.
