DESCRIPTION

London or Moscow? Big Ben or The Spasskaya Tower?»- a great number of people ask such questions, thinking about the capitals of Russia and the UK, and they believe that there are much more places of interest in London than in Moscow. Citizens of Moscow got accustomed to seeing so many beautiful sights,that they pass by without noticing the beauty of these places. They pass by wonderful buildings, monuments, parks abloom with roses, avenues, city squares, unique metro stations. I am going to disprove this misbelief and to show that each place of interest in London has an analogue in Moscow.
