The old Celts gave it its name, the Romans made it the centre of their new colony, the Germanic invaders made London the capital of the country.
The central part of London is full of historical remains. Almost every building, every bridge, every street, palace house, and stone - each of them has its own story, its own past. In London past and present are so mixed that they cannot easily be separated and when you are in London you see the past in the present and the present in the past.
