Tourists come from all over the world to visit its historic buildings , such as St. Paul’s Cathedral, which has a huge dome , and the Houses of Parliament,where you can see and hear the famous clock , Big Ben. They also come to visit its theatres , museums, and its many shops, such as Harrords, where you can by any things.Like many big cities , London has problems with traffic and pollution.Over 1,000,000 people a day use the London Underground, but there are still too many cars on the streets. The air isn’t clean , but it is cleaner than it was 100 years ago.Until the Clean Air Act in 1956 , London was famous for its fog or ‘smog’, which is a mixture of smoke and fog.The best thing about London is the parks .
