It is stands on the South Bank of the River Thames in London, between Westminster and Hungerford Bridges. 
It is the world's highest observation wheel.
The wheel was constructed in sections which were floated up the river Thames on barges and assembled lying flat on pontoons. Once the wheel was complete it was raised into its upright position by cranes, initially being lifted at a rate of about 2 degrees per hour until it reached 65 degrees.]]> 2018-05-13 12:12:34 UTC https://padlet.com/kotenzhi65/20v4dxc54j2a/wish/260217955 Violetta Dovgonyuk St Paul's Cathedral kotenzhi65 https://padlet.com/kotenzhi65/20v4dxc54j2a/wish/260257632 St Paul's Cathedral is the work of the famous architect Sir Christopher Wren.
It is said to be one of the finest pieces of architecture in Europe.
 Work onWren's masterpiece began in 1675 after a Norman church, old St Paul's, wasdestroyed in the Great Fire of 1666.
For 35 years the building of St Paul'sCathedral went on, and Wren was an old man before it was finished.
From far away you can see the huge dome with a golden ball and cross on thetop.
 The interior of the Cathedral is very beautiful. It is full of monuments. 
The most important, perhaps, is the one dedicated to the Duke of Wellington.After looking round you can climb 263 steps to the Whispering Gallery, whichruns round
is called so, because if someone whispers close tothe wall on one side, a person with his ear close to the wall on the other sidecan hear what is said. But if you want to reach the foot of the ball, you have toclimb 637 steps.

The collection originated in the 1920s, when the London General Omnibus Company decided to preserve two Victorian horse buses and an early motorbus for future generations. The Museum of British Transport opened in an old bus garage in Clapham, south London, during the 1960s, before moving to Syon Park in west London in 1973 as the London Transport Collection. In 1980, the public display moved again, this time to occupy the Victorian Flower Market building in Covent Garden as London Transport Museum. Highlights include the iconic red London bus, the world’s first Underground steam train and the padded cell – a train carriage dating back to the 1890s. The 6.000sq ft depot opens to the public for special events, including themed weekends and guided tours ]]> 2018-05-16 17:24:22 UTC https://padlet.com/kotenzhi65/20v4dxc54j2a/wish/261315227 Big Ben dovgonyukk https://padlet.com/kotenzhi65/20v4dxc54j2a/wish/261336522 The big clock on the tower of the Palace of Westminster in London is often called Big Ben. But Big Ben is really the bell of the clock. It is the biggest clock bell in Britain. It weighs 13.5 tons.
The clock tower is 318 feet high. You have to go up 374 steps to reach the top. So the clock looks small from the pavement below the tower.
The clock bell is called Big Ben after Sir Benjamin Hall. He had the job to see that the bell was put up.]]> 2018-05-16 18:09:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kotenzhi65/20v4dxc54j2a/wish/261336522 Tower Bridge dovgonyukk https://padlet.com/kotenzhi65/20v4dxc54j2a/wish/261338536 The Tower of London is one of the most imposing and popular of London's historical sites.
