OUR LONDON

From the world's most famous phone box to the oldest underground system, here are our favourite ten things to see in London...

The most famous clock in the word.
"Big Ben" is the name of the bell inside the clock. But most people call the tower Big Ben. The bell chimed for the first time in 1859. Today in only stops for repairs. Big Ben is next to the Houses of Parliament , So the Members of Parliament have no excuse for being late for work.

The most delicious snack in the word.
Afternoon tea is a snack that Londoners have at 4 pm. The ritual comes from the rich English classes of the 1800s. It consist of tea served with milk ans sugar. There are also little sandwiches, cakes and delicious "scones". Today, you can enjoy afternoon tea in a tea shop or a nice hotel. Every year, one London hotel wins the Top Afternoon Tea award.
