- Birmingham - How It Has Evolved
Birmingham – known to the people who live there as ‘Brum’ – is the second-largest city in the UK (not Manchester, as people often mistakenly believe). It can trace its history all the way back to the Bronze Age, and there is still a Roman fort there today. - London Just Oozes History
The twentieth-century history of London is not a happy one. While the city was bombed during the First World War, it suffered relatively little. London was still rapidly expanding out into the suburbs, but it was hit hard by the worldwide depression of the 1930s, and then again by World War II. - Let Me Take You By The Hand And Take You Through The Streets Of London
London is crammed full of famous places. Few cities in the world can match it when it comes to the number of tourist attractions per square foot, and it’s such a short distance between everything – whatever you want to see, the chances are that you’re only a short walk or bus ride away from it. - Going Underground, Going Underground
London has a long and interesting history, and there are all sorts of stories you’ll hear as you go around and look at all its attractions. However, that’s not all there is to London – it also has its more offbeat side, the kind of things you wouldn’t really get to know unless you lived there. But it’s your lucky day, because I’m going to give away a few of the secrets. - The British Museum
Among the countless tourist attractions in contemporary London, such as the Houses of Parliament, Tower Bridge and Buckingham Palace, the one that can easily be considered the unforgettable “Queen” amongst them all, is the British Museum. Britain’s national museum of archaeology and antiquities was established by an act of Parliament in 1753, when the government purchased three large private collections consisting of books, manuscripts, prints, drawings, paintings, medals, coins, seals, cameos, and natural curiosities. Today, home of approximately seven million objects from all continents, the British museum is considered to be the most popular and famous museum in the world. - Rioja: The Spanish Beauty
Rioja is Spain’s version of the Italian Chianti. It is the best-known and best-loved type of Spanish red wine, the one red wine type from Spain that has found a home for itself on wine lists and retail shelves everywhere in the world.
