The Tower Bridge was built on the Thames river , and it was opened 129 years ago.
It was built because in the 1870's around a milion people were living east of London and getting across it could take hours, so the construction of the Tower Bridge began on April 22 of 1886 and it was opened on June 30 of 1894 by the Prince and the Princess of Wales.

With the suspension of the Night Tub, from midnight to 4.30 in the morning the bus is the only public transport in operation (excluding taxis). When the subway and trains stop running, the night buses come into service: buses that only perform night services are indicated with N + the number of the line.
A single ride costs £1.50. Using only buses and trams to get around London, you'll pay a maximum of £4.40 per day, as long as you always use the same card.
The telephone booth is a structure equipped with a door to guarantee a minimum of privacy to whoever is using it, and a window, or a series of glass windows to show when the booth is in use. In the cabin it is in some cases possible find a local telephone directory and in hotels also paper, pen and a place to sit.
THE PHONE BOX
In 1920, the first English booth called Kiosk N.1
was invented by William Gray.
It is said that the idea of creating a public telephone set came to him when his wife was taken ill, and no one in the neighborhood let him use their telephone. Gray opened his own company and began installing these devices in many cities. Within a few years this invention also arrived in Europe. London's famous red booths were introduced in the UK in 1924 Most phone booths around the world feature the logo of the telephone company that owns the property.

In 1924, sir. Giles Gilbert Scott won the competition to design a standard telephone box for use in Great Britain, and to be standard-produced.
They were installed 30 years earlier than in Italy.
They were thought of as metal, but red was chosen because they had to look good, and they were also large and heavy.
today they are not used but they are still a symbol of London
Il Buckingham palaze fu costruito nel 1703 da duca di Buckingham ma fu la regina Vittoria a risiedervi durante la sua ascesa al trono nel 1837 ma non riuscì a vederla completa.
Dopo la sua morte il suo predecessore, e Guglielmo IV prese il suo posto al trono.
Con un totale di 775 stanze e 400 dipendenti, 430.000 piscine ed un enorme giardino. Ora ci abita la famiglia reale con re CARLO III e Camilla dopo la morte della regina Elisabetta II
THE RED TELEPHONE BOX
The architect of post office drew the first telephone box (kiosk1) in a 1921 ,it was grey, english people didn't like it.
Few years later, Giles Gilbert Scott drew the red model (K2). Later new versions were made. the last one (k8) was designed by Bruce Martin.
today's technology has made the telephone box useless, but it remains a symbol of London
