1. Hadrian's Wall is the most important monument built by the Romans in Britain. It was a fortification (укрепление) in Roman Britain, 120 km long from the North Sea in the east to the Irish Sea in the west. The Romans began building it in AD 122, during the rule of Emperor Hadrian. He built the wall to keep Roman Britain safe from attacks. For much of its length, you can walk on foot by Hadrian's Wall Path. It is the most popular tourist attraction in Northern England.

2. Buckingham Palace is the main royal London home and workplace. It is situated in Westminster. The palace is a setting for state occasions. The building was for the Duke of Buckingham in 1705. George III bought it in 1761 as a private residence for Queen Charlotte, and it was known as "The Queen's House". Buckingham Palace finally became the official royal palace of the British monarch and Queen Victoria was the first monarch to live there in 1837.

3. London's Tower Bridge is one of the most famous bridges in the world. The east of London became extremely crowded in the 19th century and a bridge across the Thames in that part of the city was a necessity. On June 30th, 1894, the Tower Bridge was opened by King Edward VII. The architects decided to create a moveable bridge to allow big ships to pass. The mechanism to open the bridge is in the two towers. The middle part of the bridge is lifted up when big ships pass through that way.

4. The Cenotaph is a war memorial situated in Whitehall, London. It was built as a war memorial. Each year a National Service is held there on Sunday, the nearest Sunday to 11 November (Armistice Day) to remember soldiers who died in the two World Wars and later conflicts. The monarch, religious leaders, politicians come to pay respect to those who gave their lives defending others. Everybody observes two-minute silence. The ceremony ends with a march of war veterans, a gesture of respect for their fallen comrades.
