The UK’s capital is a thriving, cosmopolitan centre with a diverse culture, rich history, and a multitude of world-famous sites and attractions. London is a leading global city in the arts, entertainment, commerce, fashion, media, and tourism, and is home to a host of World Heritage Sites, including the Palace of Westminster and Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace, and Tower Bridge, amongst many. It is one of the major financial centres of the world, and over half of the UK’s FTSE 100 companies have their headquarters in London. It is an international destination for both business and leisure tourists.
