Explore the fusion of historical and modern architecture in the ever-evolving City of London.
The City of London is the place from which the capital grew, so it's full of historical landmarks like the Roman Wall, the Roman Amphitheatre, the Royal Exchange and Guildhall.
Alongside these though, you'll also see some striking examples of modern architecture like the Gherkin (30 St Mary Axe), the Walkie Talkie (20 Fenchurch St) and Heron Tower - the City's tallest skyscraper.
The City really is an architectural paradise waiting for you to explore and enjoy.
