Welcome to Greenwich

Greenwich Tourist Information Centre is in Pepys House on the Old Royal Naval College site - the same building houses the Discover Greenwich exhibition centre. http://www.visitgreenwich.org.uk/
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piccadilly_Circus La place, autrefois considérée comme le centre de l' Empire britannique , constitue encore de nos jours un des centres nerveux de Londres, et est réputée pour l'enchantement que procure le scintillement de la pléthore d'enseignes lumineuses qui la recouvre, mais elle est également entourée de plusieurs curiosités touristiques, dont une fontaine érigée en 1893 en mémoire de Lord Shaftesbury et surplombée par un Ange de la Charité chrétienne (communément appelé Éros ), ou encore le théâtre Criterion , le London Pavilion et plusieurs magasins célèbres.

Piccadilly Circus

It's a commercial way very famous. There are lots of shops, and there are very original. We can ind evrything in these streets. There are shops with basic or chic clothes. I like this place. Besides Chrismas decorations were delightful and they give a very good mind of Chrismas! by laurakaupiez Jan 20

British Museum

Yes there are lots of remains of Ancient Egypt. It's very interesting! by laurakaupiez Jan 20

http://www.britishmuseum.org/explore/cultures/africa/ancient_egypt.aspx Towards the end of the fourth millennium BC several independent city-states were unified to form a single state, marking the beginning of over 3,000 years of pharaonic civilisation in the Nile Valley. Fertile earth left behind after the yearly Nile flood provided the basis for Egypt’s agricultural prosperity, a key factor in the longevity of the civilisation. Impressive monuments were erected in the name of kings, from monumental temples for the gods to the pyramids marking the burials of rulers.

Ancient Egypt

During the twelfth century AD the Mexica were a small and obscure tribe searching for a new homeland. Eventually they settled in the Valley of Mexico and founded their capital, Tenochtitlan, in 1345. At the beginning of the sixteenth century it was one of the largest cities in the world. http://www.britishmuseum.org/explore/cultures/the_americas/aztecs_mexica.aspx

http://www.britishmuseum.org/explore/cultures/oceania/polynesia.aspx The islands of the eastern Pacific are known as Polynesia, from the Greek for ‘many islands’. They lie across a vast stretch of ocean from Hawaii in the north, to New Zealand in the south and Easter Island in the east. The western Polynesian islands of Fiji and Tonga were settled approximately 3,000 years ago, whilst New Zealand was settled as recently as AD1200.

Painting of the Month

In this sensitive, thoughtful work by Titian, one of the finest painters of the Italian Renaissance , a gentle breeze animates the grasses at the feet of the figure holding a hoe, and plays across the coral-like foliage of the bushes that recede into the distant blue landscape. Titian, 'Noli me Tangere', about 1514

Tate Modern

It's a museum of Modern Art. It's a building with 4 floors. There are lots of paintings of artists who are exposed in this place: Matis, Picasso... In particular french artists. I don't like this visit because certain works are without life and emotion. by laurakaupiez Jan 20

London Eye

It's a big wheel to build in 2000 for the new millenium. There are 32 cabins and the wheel measur 135 meters. There are a splendid view of London/ a Westminster Abbey, Buckingam, Picadilly Circus, Big Ben... The tour lasted 30 minuts. It was the best visit me made! by laurakaupiez Jan 20
