Last summer, my family and I went to London for a weekend. It is an amazing and large city, but it can be very noisy and busy. First, we visited a famous museum in the centre. The building was old and beautiful, and the things inside were very interesting. We also saw a tall tower and a very long bridge over the river. London is more expensive than my town, but it is not boring! There are many different things to do. We saw a popular statue and the Queen’s palace. We felt very safe because the streets were clean and the people were friendly. It was the best trip ever! We took many photos of the skyscraper buildings. It is a great place to visit for any tourist.
