Here few places that you should visit when you traveling to London. It is top Attractions list in London

Westminster Abbey
Steeped in history, the pillars of this great vaulted hall stand on the final resting place of the men and women who built Britain. Its great Gothic hall continues to play a part in the formation of the kingdom, having hosted nearly every coronation since 1308.

Buckingham Palace
Not the prettiest royal residence, but a must-see for the glimpse it affords of the modern life of the monarchy. The opulence of the state rooms open to the public provides plenty of wow factor, and don’t forget the collection of china and carriages at the Queen’s Gallery and Royal Mews next door.

St. Paul’s Cathedral
No matter how many times you have been before, the scale and elegance of Sir Christopher Wren’s masterpiece never fail to take the breath away. Climb the enormous dome, third largest in the world, to experience the freaky acoustics of the Whispering Gallery, and higher still for fantastic views across London.

Tower of London
The Tower is London at its majestic, idiosyncratic best. This is truly the heart of the kingdom—with foundations dating back nine centuries, every brick tells a story, and the ax-blows and fortunes that have risen and fallen within this turreted mini-city provide an inexhaustible supply of intrigue.

British Museum
If you want to journey through time and space without leaving the confines of Bloomsbury, a visit to the British Museum holds hours of eye-catching artifacts from the world’s greatest civilizations, including the Elgin Marbles, the Rosetta Stone, and the Sutton Hoo treasure.

Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre
You can catch a Shakespeare play almost every night of the year in London. But standing on a floor of leaves and sawdust in a painstakingly re-created version of the galleried Tudor theater for which he wrote is a special thrill.

Hampton Court Palace
This collection of buildings and gardens so captivated Henry VIII that it became his favorite royal residence. Its Tudor charm, augmented by Wren’s touch, and a picturesque upstream Thames location make it a great day out—not even dour Oliver Cromwell, who moved here in 1653, could resist its charms.

Tate Modern
More of an event than the average museum visit, Tate Modern, housed inside a striking 1930s power station, is a hip, immensely successful addition to the London gallery landscape. Passing judgment on the latest controversial temporary exhibit inside the giant turbine hall has become almost a civic duty among art-loving Londoners.

National Gallery
Whatever the collective noun is for a set of old masters—a palette? a canvas?—there are enough here to have the most casual art enthusiast cooing with admiration. When you’ve finished, enjoy pedestrianized Trafalgar Square on the doorstep of this collection.

London’s Central Parks
With London’s green spaces so broken up, it seems churlish to pick out only one. The four central parks are all within walking distance: pick St. James’s Park for fairy-tale views; Green Park for hillocks and wide boulevards; Regent’s Park for its open-air theater and the London Zoo; and Hyde Park for rowing on the Serpentine Lido.

A pyramid is a building where the outer surfaces are triangular and converge at a point. The base of a pyramid can be trilateral, quadrilateral, or any polygon shape, meaning that a pyramid has at least four faces (base plus at least three triangular faces). The five-face square pyramid is a common version.

A pyramid’s design, with the majority of the weight closer to the ground, means that less material higher up on the pyramid will be pushing down from above: this distribution of weight allowed early civilizations to create stable monumental structures.

For thousands of years, the largest structures on Earth were pyramids: first the Red Pyramid in the Dashur Necropolis and then the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World still remaining and still the tallest pyramid of all. The largest pyramid ever built, by volume, is the Great Pyramid of Cholula, in the Mexican state of Puebla. This pyramid is still being excavated. source : wikipedia

It is great building in the past, where there is no hi-tech technology to build a amazing building. What do you think about it?

Malta is a small island located in the Mediterranean sea just off the coast of Italy. Malta is an ex-British colony so English is spoken extensively alongside the native language of Malti.

Owing to it’s location Malta is hot and dry with very little wildlife to speak of. Only a tiny number of birds and mammals can be found here though there are considerably more insects and reptiles. This in combination with the Maltese passion for hunting the few birds that are present means that Malta is not an ideal location for the animal fanatic.

Sadly Malta also has very few sandy beaches, and the few that are there are typically packed to bursting point making them rather unpleasant. While the water is warm and a stunning blue making for fantastic swimming and snorkeling the beaches lack that welcoming look.

Lastly, summer temperatures mean that even by 9 in the morning the air is baking hot and by lunchtime it can unbearable so while there are plenty of stunning views, this is not the country for long walks unless you relish the chance of heat-stroke.

Where Malta really wins though is in the history department. Strategically located, Malta has a long and fascinating history dating back hundreds, even thousands of years. The island is home to some of the most stunning cities around dripping with breathtaking architecture, cute shops and old cathedrals.

And so it is those that admire history and architecture whom Malta is the perfect vacation destination. Ensure you bring your camera because you will no doubt find yourself filling up your memory card rapidly when in Valetta or any of the other ancient cities of old.
