History
London grew from Roman Londinium on river terraces of the Thames; successive eras—Anglo‑Saxon, Norman and Georgian—left visible layers in streets and monuments.
Conservation
Central London uses congestion and low-emission zones to reduce traffic pollution; favoring a single private vehicle for a group lowers per-person transit emissions compared with several taxis.
