Where to stay in London?

The British capital is conditionally divided into 32 districts (“borough”), of which 12 boroughs form Inner or Greater London, that is, the historical center, and the remaining 20 are the former outskirts that gradually merged into the city limits.


Hotels in London are quite expensive. Public transport prices are also very high. Therefore, if your goal is to visit the main attractions, you should prefer areas that are part of Greater London. In this case, the method of choosing a hotel away from the center in order to save money does not always work, since you can spend all the difference on travel, plus you will steal 1.5-2 hours of your time daily. So, which area of ​​London is the best place to stay while on holiday?

City

The City deserves special mention. City of London is not one of the 32 boroughs and is a separate metropolitan area with special privileges. This is the very heart of London, which appeared within the boundaries of the ancient Roman city of Londinium. Today it is the largest financial center not only in Britain, but throughout Europe. Among the sights here are St. Paul's Cathedral, the Great Fire of London Monument, the London Stock Exchange and the Mary Ax skyscraper. Staying here is expensive, and worth it only if you want to feel the rhythm of the capital or come for work.

After all, even if you are sure that everything is in order with your documents, then when you try to storm the British consulate on your own, you can expect a fiasco. In this case, VisaToHome will be your best ally.

History of London

In 43 AD The ancient Romans founded the town of Londinium, which means "wild places". Constantly repulsing the raids of the Britons, the settlers built and developed the city, and by the year 100 it became shopping center islands and capital. However, in the 5th century, the Romans left Britain, leaving the prosperous city to the indigenous population.

In the middle of the VI century, these lands were captured by the Saxons, who brought Christianity with them. Another five centuries after that, London constantly changed hands: it was owned by either the Vikings or the Anglo-Saxons.

In 1066, Duke William the Conqueror of Normandy became the first king of a united England. He created an army and navy, conducted the first land census, established legal provisions and launched active construction - in particular, he erected the Tower. William's business was continued by the heirs: this is how the Palace of Westminster and the stone bridge across the Thames appeared in London (it remained the only one right up to 1739).


By the beginning of the XIV century, the population of London exceeded 80 thousand people. Even after the plague epidemic, which in the middle of the same century reduced the number of inhabitants by almost half, the capital of Britain recovered quite quickly - the economic and political importance of the city was so great.

In the XV-XVII centuries, the position of London was unprecedented: thanks to trade with Russia, Northern and South America he grew rich at an incredible rate. The emergence in 1600 of the East India Trading Company ensured dominance over the colonial trade as well.

The development of the city did not keep pace with the growth of the population: due to unsanitary conditions and overcrowding, plague epidemics broke out in the capital every now and then. In 1665, the disease claimed the lives of 60 thousand people. Almost immediately after this, a new misfortune struck the city: the Great Fire of London in 1666 destroyed 60% of the city's buildings in three days (fortunately, human casualties there wasn't much).


Restored by the beginning of the 18th century, London was very different from the old one: stone houses replaced wooden houses, new areas appeared, the number of port docks increased, and finally, beautiful churches and palaces were built. International trade, in particular the import of sugar, tea, tobacco and silk, provided a constant influx of finance.

In the 19th century, London was the most big city in the world: its population exceeded 6 million people! In 1836 there appeared Railway, in 1863 - the world's first subway. In 1851, with great success, world exhibition. However, life in the brilliant capital had another side: millions of people huddled in unsanitary slums, barely earning their living. In the summer of 1858, the "Great Stench" occurred, caused by the fact that waste from all over the city was dumped straight into the Thames. Only after that, sewerage appeared in the city.

Two World Wars caused great damage to the city, but by the middle of the 20th century London had regained its economic and political positions, and also became a trendsetter in the field of culture and art. "Swinging London" turned the notion of beauty, setting the tone for musicians, artists and designers for many years to come.
