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.

Liverpool Street is most well known for its railway station, Liverpool Street station. Liverpool Street, although just a street and a railway station, is so well known that people often refer to it as an area in itself. Liverpool Street is a central London railway terminus and connected to the London Underground. It is the end of two main lines: the Great Eastern Main Line to Norwich and the West Anglia Main Line to Cambridge. Liverpool Street station also provides local commuter services to parts of east London and Essex. In addition to this, it is the terminus of the Stansted Express, a fast train link to London Stansted Airport. The majority of the serviced apartments Liverpool Street has to offer are near transport links of some kind.

Liverpool Street station is the third busiest station in the United Kingdom after Waterloo and Victoria and has over 120 million visitors each year. The station has exits to Bishopsgate, Liverpool Street and the Broadgate development. The station connects the Central line, Circle line, Metropolitan line, and Hammersmith & City line, and is located in travelcard zone 1.

The station was built on the site of the original Bethlem Royal Hospital, was opened to traffic on 2 February 1874 by the Great Eastern Railway and was completely operational from 1 November 1875.  It was designed by the Great Eastern Railway’s chief engineer, Edward Wilson, and was built by John Mowlem & Co. The station was named after the street on which it stands, which in turn was named in honour of British Prime Minister Lord Liverpool.
