London have more than buildings
London is not just simply the British capitol, or with its more than 8 million people one of the biggest cities in Europe. It also witnessed about 2,000 years of human history from its origin as a Roman settlement and with the following Norman influence, the establishment of parliamentary democracy, centuries of industrialisation and world domination as a capitol of a colonial power which entered its downfall after two world wars. During the last decades the city transformed its face shaping manufacturing industry with all the catastrophic environmental impacts into a service driven economy within the financial sector what can be observed especially in the Docklands, the former harbour area. Monumental time witnesses of each epoch of the whole history can be found in various places.
