倫 敦 塔 橋
簡史:公元前地中海伊比利亞人,比克人,凱爾特人,先後來到不列顛。1-5世紀英格蘭東南部為羅馬帝國統治。羅馬人撤走後,歐洲北部的盎格魯人、薩克遜人、朱特人相繼入侵並定居。7世紀開始形成封建制度,許多小國並成七個王國,爭雄達200年之久,稱「盎格魯—撒克遜時代」。829年威塞克斯國王愛格伯特統一了英格蘭。8世紀末遭丹麥人侵襲,1016年至1042年為丹麥海盜帝國的一部分。其後經英王短期統治,1066年諾曼底公爵渡海征服英格蘭。1215年約翰王被迫簽署大憲章,王權遭抑制。1338年至1453 年英法進行「百年戰爭」,英國先勝後敗。1588年擊敗西班牙「無敵艦隊」,樹立海上霸權。1640年爆發資產階級革命。1649年5月19日宣布為共和國。1660年王朝復辟,1668年發生「光榮革命」,確定了君主立憲制。1707年英格蘭與蘇格蘭合並,1801年又與愛爾蘭合並。18世紀後半葉至19世紀上半葉,成為世界上第一個完成工業革命的國家。19世紀是大英帝國的全盛時期,1914年佔有的殖民地比本土大111倍,是第一殖民大國,自稱「日不落帝國」。第一次世界大戰後開始衰敗。英國於1920年設立北愛蘭郡,並於1921年至1922年允許愛爾蘭南部脫離其統治,成立獨立國家。1931年頒布威斯敏斯特法案,被迫承認其自治領在內政、外交上獨立自主,大英帝國殖民體系從此動搖。第二次世界大戰中經濟實力大為削弱,政治地位下降。隨著1947年印度和巴基斯坦的相繼獨立,到60年代,英帝國殖民體系瓦解。1973年1月加入歐共體。
倫 敦 大 本 鍾
政治:英國的憲法不同於絕大多數國家的憲法,並不是一個獨立的文件,它是由成文法、習慣法、慣例組成。主要有大憲章(1215年)、人身保護法(1679年)、權利法案(1689年)、議會法(1911、1949年)以及歷次修改的選舉法、市自治法、郡議會法等。蘇格蘭另有自己獨立的法律體系。政體為君主立憲制。國王是國家元首、最高司法長官、武裝部隊總司令和英國聖公會的「最高領袖」,形式上有權任免首相、各部大臣、高級法官、軍官、各屬地的總督、外交官、主教及英國聖公會的高級神職人員等,並有召集、停止和解散議會,批准法律,宣戰媾和等權力,但實權在內閣。議會是最高司法和立法機構,由國王、上院和下院組成。上院(貴族院)包括王室後裔、世襲貴族、新封貴族、上訴法院法官和教會大主教及主教組成。1999年11月,上院改革法案通過,除102名留任外,600多名世襲貴族失去上院議員資格,非政治任命的上院議員將由專門的皇家委員會推薦。下院也叫平民院,議員由普選產生,採取最多票當選的小選區選舉制度,任期5年。但政府可決定提前大選。政府實行內閣制,由女王任命在議會選舉中獲多數席位的政黨領袖出任首相並組閣,向議會負責。
政黨:(1)工黨(Labour Party):執政黨。1900年成立,原名勞工代表委員會,1906年改用現名。該黨曾於1945-1951年,1964-1970年,1974-1979年上台執政。1997年大選獲勝,2001年6月大選後蟬聯執政。工黨近年來更多傾向於中產階級的利益,與工會關系有所疏遠。布萊爾當選工黨領袖後,政治上提出「新工黨、新英國」的口號,取消黨章中有關公有制的第四條款,經濟上主張減少政府幹預,嚴格控制公共開支,保持宏觀經濟穩定增長,建立現代福利制度。對外主張積極參與國際合作,對歐洲一體化持積極態度,主張加入歐元,主張同美國保持特殊關系。現有黨員近40萬名,是英國第一大黨。(2)保守黨(Conservative Party): 主要反對黨。前身為1679年成立的托利黨,1833年改稱現名。該黨從1979至1997年4次連續執政,成為20世紀在英國佔主導地位的政黨。在1997年5月和2001年6月兩次大選中慘敗於工黨。保守黨的支持者一般來自企業界和富裕階層,主張自由市場經濟。通過嚴格控制貨幣供應量和減少公共開支等措施來壓低通貨膨脹。主張限制工會權利,加強「法律」和「秩序」。 近年來,提出實行「富有同情心的保守主義」,關注教育、醫療、貧困等社會問題。強調維護英國主權,反對「聯邦歐洲」,反對加入歐元,主張建立「大西洋共同體」以加強英美特殊關系。強調北約仍是英國安全與防務的基石。現有黨員30多萬名。(3)自由民主黨(The Liberal Democrat Party):1988年3月由原自由黨和社會民主黨內支持同自由黨合並的多數派組成。主張繼續維持與工黨的合作關系,推動工黨在地方選舉及下院選舉中實行比例代表制,在公共服務、社會公正、環境保護等問題上採取比工黨更「進步」的政策。現有黨員約10萬名,是英國第三大黨。此外,英國其他政黨還有:蘇格蘭民族黨 (Scottish National Party)、威爾士民族黨 (Plaid Cymru) 以及北愛爾蘭一些政黨如:北愛爾蘭統一黨(Ulster Unionist Party)、民主統一黨 (Democratic Unionist Party) 、社會民主工黨 (Social Democratic and Labour Party)、新芬黨 (Sinn Fein) 等。

司法:有三種不同的法律體系:英格蘭和威爾士實行普通法系,蘇格蘭實行民法法系,北愛爾蘭實行與英格蘭相似的法律制度。司法機構分民事法庭和刑事法庭兩個系統。在英格蘭和威爾士,民事審理機構按級分為郡法院、高等法院、上訴法院民事庭、上院。刑事審理機構按級分為地方法院、刑事法院、上訴法院刑事庭、上院。英國最高司法機關為上院,它是民、刑案件的最終上訴機關。1986年成立皇家檢察院,隸屬於國家政府機關,負責受理所有的由英格蘭和威爾士警察機關提交的刑事訴訟案。總檢察長和副總檢察長是英政府的主要法律顧問並在某些國內和國際案件中代錶王室。
經濟: 英國是發達的資本主義國家。其國內生產總值在西方國家中居前列。英國製造業在國民經濟中的比重有所下降,仍佔領導地位;服務業和能源所佔的比重不斷增大,其中商業、金融業和保險業發展較快。
倫敦東部碼頭區新建的金融中心
2000年,英經濟規模居世界第四,並連續第二年成為世界最大的海外投資國。私有企業是英國經濟的主體,占國內生產總值的60%以上。服務業占國內生產總值的三分之二,而製造業僅佔五分之一。能源資源最豐富的國家,也是世界主要生產石油和天然氣的國家。主要能源有煤、石油、天然氣、核能和水力等。1999年,原油及天然液化氣日產量達290萬桶(約38. 41萬噸),位居世界第九。至1999年底,原油總產量創歷史紀錄,達23 .31億噸,天然氣總產量為149000億立方米。英國是世界上第一個滿足本國2600萬電、氣用戶的國家。1999年底,總電量達7 . 01億千瓦,其中核電站供應1. 30億千瓦。英國採煤業完全私有化。森林覆蓋面積270萬公頃,佔英本土面積約10%:其中英格蘭約8%,蘇格蘭約17%,威爾士約14%,北愛約6%。主要工業有:采礦、冶金、化工、機械、電子、電子儀器、汽車、航空、食品、飲料、煙草、輕紡、造紙、印刷、出版、建築等。英國重視對新能源及可再生能源的研究開發。英開發核能有幾十年的歷史,目前供發電的核電站有14座。製造業約占國內生產總值20%,從業人員逾400萬,占總就業人口14. 4%。服務業包括金融保險業、零售業、旅遊業和商業服務(提供法律及咨詢服務等),近年來發展迅速。旅遊業是英最重要的經濟部門之一。1999年,旅遊業產值達640億英鎊;從旅遊收入上計算,英國是世界第五大旅遊國,收入佔世界旅遊收入的4. 5%。主要旅遊點有倫敦、愛丁堡、加的夫、布賴頓、格林威治、斯特拉福、牛津、劍橋等。英國是世界第五大貿易國,貿易額佔世界貿易的5. 6%。進口產品主要有:食品、燃料、原材料、服裝、鞋業、電子機械設備、汽車等;出口產品主要有:石油及相關產品、化工產品(主要是醫葯)、食品、煙草、飲料(威士忌等)、機械設備等。

Introction United Kingdom Top of Page
Background:
Great Britain, the dominant instrial and maritime power of the 19th century, played a leading role in developing parliamentary democracy and in advancing literature and science. At its zenith, the British Empire stretched over one-fourth of the earth's surface. The first half of the 20th century saw the UK's strength seriously depleted in two World Wars. The second half witnessed the dismantling of the Empire and the UK rebuilding itself into a modern and prosperous European nation. As one of five permanent members of the UN Security Council, a founding member of NATO, and of the Commonwealth, the UK pursues a global approach to foreign policy; it currently is weighing the degree of its integration with continental Europe. A member of the EU, it chose to remain outside the Economic and Monetary Union for the time being. Constitutional reform is also a significant issue in the UK. The Scottish Parliament, the National Assembly for Wales, and the Northern Ireland Assembly were established in 1999, but the latter is suspended e to wrangling over the peace process.

Tower Bridge is in London: it crosses the River Thames near the Tower of London. It is a drawbridge, which allows ships through the bridge deck when the deck is raised in the centre at an angle.
The north side of the bridge is Tower Hill, and the south side of the bridge comes down into Bermondsey, an area in Southwark. Tower Bridge is far more visible than London Bridge, which people often mistake it for. Many tourists go to London to see the Tower Bridge. It has its own exhibition centre in the horizontal walkway. This gives one of the best vantage points in London.

F. 英國旅遊英文的介紹啊!!哪位達人幫幫我,小的銀子奉上!!
This has always been a most remarkable country. From its ancient beginnings with the Celtic tribes about 3,000 years ago through the colonization by the Romans in 42 AD to the present, Britain has enjoyed one of the world's most interesting and colorful histories. The variety of life throughout England, Scotland and Wales as well as Northern Ireland makes for new and memorable experiences in each and every visit.
Capital: London
Population: 59,000,000
Area: 94, 500 square miles
Language: English
Time: +5 Hours from New York
Electricity: 220 volts/ 50 Hz (many hotels have 110 plugs for American shavers)
Geography: The country is surrounded by water except along the Northern Ireland / Republic of Ireland border. The country is as varied as its weather which is e largely to its geography. Scotland is mostly mountainous in the northern areas and mostly a plains area in the south. Northern England is quite hilly and flat for the rest of the area. Wales is almost entirely mountainous except for the coastline.
International Airports
London - Heathrow (LHR) The airport is about 16 miles from London's West end. It takes about 45 minutes by cab or the Underground. A new train from Paddington station takes only 15 minutes and also operates every 20 minutes and connect to Terminals 3 and 4. Busses and taxis are plentiful. There is bus service from Heathrow to most major centers of the country including rail connecting points.
London - Gatwick Airport (LGW) -The airport is about 25 miles from central London and is connected primarily by a train which takes about 35 minutes. The train operates every 20 minutes ring the day. Bus service is very slow and not advised. Taxis are also slow and expensive from this far out from London. Passengers alighting from the Gatwick Train at the end of their journey at Victoria Station have many taxis waiting for them and also the complete transport system of London.
Birmingham - Birmingham International (BHX) - This is an extremely well laid out airport next to the Birmingham Exposition Centre. Train service from downtown is frequent and some bus service exists. Taxis are plentiful. Train service is available to all parts of the UK from the airport. Travel time by train is about 12 minutes.
Manchester - Manchester International Airport (MAN - The airport is about 15 miles from the city and is most easily accessible by train which operates about every 20 minutes ring the day. Bus and taxi service is available.
Glasgow - Glasgow Airport (GLA) - The airport is about 12 miles from the city. Bus and taxi service is available.
Edinburgh - Edinburgh Airport (EDI) - The airport is located about 8 miles from the city center. Taxi and bus service available.
Tipping: A service charge is usually added to the bill which amounts to 10% in restaurants. If you do not see this on the bill, leave a tip. Otherwise just leave small change.
Shopping: Shops and stores are open 9 am to 5:30 pm daily except Sundays. This is a country of antiques and they are everywhere. Woolens and linens are quite good as well as the Wedgwood, Royal Doulton china and porcelain. Clothing is also very good with the abundance of Harris Tweeds and various cottons and silks.
Food and Drink: Britain is the crossroads of the Commonwealth and so every imaginable cuisine is available here - especially in London. Puddings in England and Wales and various Scottish specialties in the north are very interesting. Pubs are a focal point of communities and are a source of excellent and inexpensive food. Beverages here are not limited to those enriched with alcohol but all sorts of family oriented beverages.
Social: The British are not stuffy, only historical portrayals of them. Most are very down to earth and extremely engaging and willing to help the traveler along the way. If anything, they will want to discover more of the 'colonies' in conversations with you. You will also discover that the English, Scots and Welsh as well as the Northern Irish are very different people as may be found in different parts of North America.
Business: Business culture has changed sharply. Position is no longer engrained into society but a new term called "meritocracy" which has revolutionized the social, political and economic morays of Britain. This is reflected tremendously in business affairs. Three piece suits, umbrellas and bowler hats have disappeared and have been replaced with smartly dressed figures who are bright, energetic and quite knowledgeable in their fields. Business appointments and business cards are essential.
Banking: Banks are usually open from 9:30 am to 4 pm weekdays. A few branches are open on Saturdays.
Currency: The British Pound
Money Exchange: This is fairly easy to do anywhere, but be mindful that travelers checks are not readily accepted unless they are in UK pounds. Best place to exchange currency is at the banks. Be extremely careful about changing currency at small kiosks. You may get a very good exchange rate only to be socked by a very high commission or service charge or no commission and a very poor rate or worst of all poor rates and high commission. Banks are the best.
Credit cards: Visa, Master Card, American Express and Diners Club are well known.
The country has a varied climate ranging from subtropical in the southwest to cold and rainy in the northwest of Scotland. The country has its share of rain which can fall at any time. Scotland's northwest is the wettest area of the country. The southeast is quite sunny and tends to have the overall greatest amount of sun. The southwest is the mildest.
Destination: England
In England's North Country you』ll find the scenic splendour of lakes and mountains, castles, dramatic coastlines and glorious National Parks, combined with the medieval city of York, lively Blackpool and Manchester, world renowned for its football.
Travel south and you'll see a gentler landscape; quiet country lanes and inland waterways, the shimmering fenlands of the east coast and Stratford, Shakespeare』s birthplace and the university city of Cambridge.
Continue south of London and the area boasts glorious gardens, oast houses and stately homes whilst, the southern coast has an enviable reputation for its beaches and resorts, historic market towns, and the charming cathedral cities of Winchester and Salisbury, close to Stonehenge.
To the South West of London, the West Country offers great surfing off the craggy Cornwall coast, picturesque thatched cottage villages in the Cotswolds, cider from Somerset and delicious Devon cream teas.
Destination: The East of England
There are so many places to go and things to see in the East of England you'll find it hard to fit it all in! Each of the region's counties has its very own unique character and all of them have a wealth of places to explore and treasures to discover. Step into the East of England and you step into a subtly different world. Senses are somehow heightened beneath the great wide skies that arch above the area e to its flat landscape.
It's England as you like it - the perfect mix of soft and gentle countryside, ancient cities, stately homes and gardens, charming towns, storybook villages, bird-reserved beaches and old-fashioned seaside fun. And all with that special additive - so very unique to the East of England - a very quirky indiviality. In Stilton, Cambridgeshire, they roll cheeses down the street. At Grimston, Norfolk, they race snails on the cricket pitch for prizes. And at Great Dunmow, Essex, they have a mock trial, complete with a bewigged judge, to find a couple who 'haven't had a brawl for the last 12 months and a day'. Delightfully different!
There are ghosts galore throughout the region. At Blickling Hall, Norfolk, it's not just the horseman that is headless - but the horses, too, along with poor Ann Boleyn who sits with her head on her lap. On the Norfolk Broads there's a phantom skater and a ghost wherry. And at Dunwich, Suffolk, now lost beneath the waves, you can listen for the church bells of a huge and prosperous town.
Follies are a favourite in the eccentric East. You'll find all shapes and sizes from the giant rotunda of 18th century Ickworth House to the House in the Clouds on the Suffolk Coast - a former water tower converted into a unique holiday home. And then there are those other oddities - like the huge Tudor Dovecote at Willington in Bedfordshire, where there are also remains of a Viking harbour down by the river. And to get really confused - try and puzzle out the ancient earth maze at Saffron Walden, Essex. Or how they built the Mathematical Bridge in Cambridge without any nails.

You don』t have to fly into London because there is the international airport at Birmingham right in the centre of the region. Birmingham is also now able to offer a world-class cultural scene, superb shopping, top attractions, fantastic nightlife, major international events and exhibitions
Take some time to visit the Cotswolds, taking in the many honey-coloured villages. The potteries of Staffordshire to the north of the region are juxtaposed with Shakespeare』s Stratford-on-Avon and the nearby lesser-known parts of Warwickshire. Close by lies the Black Country, and a visit here will reveal a rich seam of art, crafts, tradition and culture with modern architectural design sitting alongside villages from the Victorian era.
Explore the counties of Herefordshire and Shropshire along the beautiful borderlands of England and Wales, sampling the myriad of excellent restaurants and locally proced food. Don』t forget to discover the real taste of the countryside in Herefordshire』s famous cider.
