First Impressions of LONDON, UK 🇬🇧

[@enemde3025]

BIG BEN is the largest BELL inside the ELIZABETH TOWER, not the tower itself . It would NOT have been "under construction" when you first visited, as it was built in 1843. The MALL is pronounced MALL as in PAL, not MAUL. Telephone BOXES not BOOTHS. Double Decker buses and black cabs are not just used in London, they are all over the UK. London's theatre district, THE WEST END, is the most famous in the world. CHIPS are NOT French Fries !!!!

Oh, sorry about that! But thank you for the info! We appreciate all the corrections and extra details about London 😊
