London is the capital and largest city of England and the United Kingdom, with a population of 9.14 million people in 2025. Its wider metropolitan area is the largest in Western Europe, with a population of 15.4 million. London stands on the River Thames in southeast England, at the head of a 50-mile (80 km) tidal estuary down to the North Sea, and has been a major settlement for nearly 2,000 years. Its ancient core and financial centre, the City of London, was founded by the Romans as Londinium and has retained its medieval boundaries. The City of Westminster, to the west of the City of London, has been the site of the national government and parliament for centuries. London grew rapidly in the 19th century, becoming the world's largest city at the time. Since the 19th century the name "London" has referred to the metropolis around the City of London, historically split among the counties of Middlesex, Essex, Surrey, Kent and Hertfordshire. Since 1965 it has largely comprised the administrative area of Greater London, governed by 33 local authorities and the Greater London Authority.

One of the first things that you'll notice about London is its rich history. The city was founded in 1826, and has since grown to become a hub of culture and commerce in the region. From the historic buildings and landmarks that line the streets, to the many museums and galleries that showcase the city's past, there's no shortage of things to see and do here.

But London isn't just a city for history lovers - it's also a great place for nature enthusiasts. The city is home to numerous parks and green spaces, including the sprawling Springbank Park, which covers over 300 acres and offers plenty of opportunities for hiking, biking, and picnicking. There's also the Thames River, which runs through the heart of the city and provides a tranquil setting for a leisurely stroll.
