The West End is the richest and the most beautiful part of London. The best hotels, shops, restaurants, clubs and theatres are situated there. The beautiful parks of London are also in this part of the city. The famous Hide Park with its curious “Speaker’s Corner is also there. The best-known streets here are Whitehall with important Government offices; Downing Street, the London residence of the Prime Minister and the place where the Cabinet meets; Fleet Street where most newspapers have their offices; Harley Street where the highest paid doctors live, and some others.
Trafalgar Square with the tall Nelson’s Column is the geographical centre of London. It was named in memory of Admiral Nelson’s victory in the battle of Trafalgar in 1805. Not far away there is the British Museum – the biggest museum in London.
The East End is the poorest district of London. There are a lot of factories, workshops and docks here. The streets are narrow, the buildings are unimpressive.
