London is such a historical city ! There ’ s history everywhere you look . There ’ s nelson ’ s column , built as a monument to one of the Britain ’ s great admirals and his important victory . He won the battle of Trafalgar in 1805 .   I ’ m looking forward to seeing Westminster abbey , where many historical figures are buried , like Isaac Newton , the great mathematician and Winston Churchill , the great wartime leader .   Nearby , on the banks of the thames , there ’ s the statue of Boadicea . She fought the Romans when they invaded Britain .   Women have often played an important role in British history . Queen Elizabeth I built a navy strong enough to fight off the Spanish armada in 1588 . more recently , Margaret thatcher transformed british society in the 1980 ’ s .   She was a very controversial leader . Are we going to visit the famous tower of London later ?   There ’ s a lot to see there . Perhaps we should go tomorrow .   I ’ m looking forward to seeing the famous castle and prison . Many historic figures were imprisoned there in the past . I really want to see the crown jewels too .   I ’ Ve seen them before . They ’ re quite incredible . If you want to see historical figures in London , there ’ s one place you have to go .   Where ’ s that ? Oh , I know ! Madame Tussaud ’ s the waxworks museum .   There you can see british leaders , entertainers , criminals , and royalty .
