London is so old

1.

London is so old. The Romans founded (основали) it more
than 2000 years ago. They started it as a fortress. Later
they transformed (преобразовали) it into a town. Different
people came to damage and to destroy it. Londoners
restored (реставрировали) their city again and again. How
skilful they were
Now I understand that London is really precious
(драгоценный) stone (камень) of the British Crown
(короны). I can’t forget its places of interest. Westminster
Abbey is magnificent(великолепный). It is a church near
the Houses of Parliament. British monarchs are crowned
(коронуются) in Westminster Abbey. I don’t know the
architect who designed (проектировал) it

2.

The British Museum and the National Gallery house
(вмещают) world treasures, their exhibitions contain
(содержат) real masterpieces (шедевры), rare (редкие)
paintings, ancient (древние) sculptures, unique
(уникальные) books, works of cast masters (мастеров по
литью), arms and armoury
I liked St Paul’s Cathedral, the main church of London. It is
so big. They treasure (высоко ценят) it because many
famous people are buried (похоронены) there, Lord
nelson, for example. Buckingham Palace is the residence
of the British monarchs. It is wonderful. Best British
designers decorated it. But they say that the Queen likes
to stay at her castles (замках) outside London

For me it’s hard to choose the 7th wonders of my country,
because Russia is great
My choice is Moscow Kremlin because it is famous for
magnificent cathedrals
I’m sure that lake Baikal is a wonder because it is unique
We can’t do without Red Square because it is the symbol
of my country
I think it’s quite right to include the Tretyakov Gallery. It
houses real masterpieces
I would choose Tsar Bell and Tsar Cannon. They were
designed by famous Russian cast masters
And I can’t do without my home town.
