London today

London is going green!
The air in London is more clean now than it used to be. They are creating new parks, with a lot of trees and flowers. They are working on cleaning the city. They encourage the big cars and trucks not too drive through London.

Tall, taller and tallest.
Until the 1960's the buildings in London weren't so high. They were about 30 metres tall.
Today London is full of skyscrabers and the tallest building is the Canary Wharf Tower, which is 235 metres tall. The Canary Wharf Towers, is located in the old docklands. It's used as a business place.

The old docklands.
The reason why there is room for offices and flats in the old docklands, is because the modern container ships are too big for the docks. So now the port has moved to Tilbury. The docklands was a place, where the ships came in and delivered stuff from other countries.

Tourists in London.
Tourists love going to London, infact 27 million visitors come to London each year.
That's why they have a lot of restaurants and hotels.
