Task 2


  • What is the nightlife like in this city?

London is world-famous for its non-stop party life and late night bars and clubs. Nightlife areas in London aren’t difficult to find, because there are many, everywhere. Thousands of bars, clubs, lounges, and live music venues are all over the city. There is one last thing to mention regarding pubs: If you want a drink or something to eat you have to order it at the bar, pubs do not offer table service.

  • What are some of the most important tourist locations? 
Situated on the banks of the River Thames, the London Eye is an enormous, 135 meter high observation wheel carrying 32 exterior glass-walled capsules. It offers fantastic views over central London. The wheel does not usually stop to take on passengers as the rotation rate is slow enough to allow passengers to walk on and off the moving capsules at ground level. It is the most popular paid tourist attraction in the United Kingdom, visited by many people of the world.

  • What are some traditions in this city? 
Well dressing  is a summer custom practised in rural England in which wellssprings or other water sources are decorated with designs created from flower petals. The custom is most closely associated with the Peak District of Derbyshire

Task 1

Day 10 in London:


It's September 17 and we got up early to make breakfast in the knowledge that it was our last day in London and we should make the most. We were granted time to know the nonprofit attractions of the English capital to our liking. Several groups of students determined to visit several places including Madame Tussauds, Camden Town, football stadiums, and many others were formed. We had from 10am until about 6 pm and then go to a famous play. In the large time we had to visit this wonderful city with all its attractions, I found very welcoming, despite being the city in the world with more immigrants and people of different races.

As for the differences between my country Chile and London, are very large, London as a city of over 8 million inhabitants, is considered as a developed city in terms of technology, buildings, transport and food from all over the world . Instead Chile a small developing country with many financial problems but with many attractions like London.

To end the day, we had the opportunity to appreciate generation together as the famous play The Phantom of the Opera, which was splendid. And then go to the hotel very tired to sleep because the next day was very long. We all had a good behavior, unlike refused departure next day and nobody wanted that.
