London – buying or renting a property in London, United Kingdom

London is the capital of England and the United Kingdom. It is the UK's largest and most populous metropolitan area and the largest urban zone in the European Union by most measures.

London is a leading global city and one of the world's largest financial centre. London's influence in politics, finance, education, entertainment, media, fashion, the arts and culture in general contributes to its global position. It has a diverse range of people, cultures, and religions, and more than 300 languages are spoken within its boundaries. The London Underground network is the most extensive underground railway network in the world, London Heathrow Airport is the world's busiest airport by number of international passengers and the airspace is the busiest of any urban centre in the world.

London's buildings are too diverse to be characterised by any particular architectural style, having been built over a long period of time. Many grand houses and public buildings, such as the National Gallery, are constructed from Portland stone. Some areas of the city, particularly those just west of the centre, are characterised by white stucco or whitewashed buildings. Few structures pre-date the Great Fire of 1666, except for a few trace Roman remains, the Tower of London and a few scattered Tudor survivors in the City.
