Districts

The name London originally referred only to the wall "Square Mile" of the original Roman
city (and later medieval) (now confusingly called the "City of London" or "The City"). London, however, has acquired a much broader meaning to include all of the vast central part of the modern metropolis, the city having absorbed numerous surrounding cities and towns across the centuries. Reflecting the enormous size of the metropolis, the term covers Greater London Central London, with all the outer suburbs that are incontinuous expansion of the built environment in the lower valley of the Thames. Despite the population density by the rules of the New World, London retains large expanses of green parks and open spaces, even in the middle of the city.
Greater London contains 32 London boroughs and the City of London which, together with the relatively new mayor of London, form the basis of local go
vernment in London. The names of several towns, like Westminster or Camden, are well known and explicit self, others not so, as Tower Hamlets or Hackney.

Oyster Card

The Oyster Card is a card that can store money on it for travel on Metro, Bus, tram and DLR. To acquire it we must go to any metro station (And so do some stores) and
ask for which we know we can get the money you want (u
p to 100 pounds) in the light that make you put down a deposit of £ 3 in the card can not be spent and serves only to government insurance but you back when you hand the card, for which we must again turn to a metro station (Or any store) and give it up and you back on your remaining balance and deposit of £ 3. The Oyster card
is very useful because: 1.All the transport rates are reduced (Bus £ 1 instead of 2 pounds, 1 1.5 meters in area instead of 4 £ £) 2.Al arrive at the price of a travel card 50p card days less preventing cut more spending and ensuring that the carrier pays less money than if it had compredo the travel card. It is not certain the existence of Oyster Cards by time or by location, time does not exist and you decide when to buy and return, and in regard to the areas, just the price charged increases as you move away from the area 1 but remaining lower than the single ticket (four pounds). For use in transportation, we must draw a yellow card for a menbranas, in the subway at the entrance and exit because if not punish you with the price of a single ticket (£ 4) and bus to the entrance. The Oyster Card is little point in tourism because it allows the tourist:
1. Not feeling the
need to profit from your ticket because the money is refundable,
and therefore take as much walking tour (best viewed as a city) 2. Paid as a tourist travels and needs a lot of transportation to repay a Travelcard while in a normal case, simply a trip to the place we want, a visit to this area, and a return trip. As you can see, can make a significant difference if, for instance, must take the metro every day for
a month to get to and from work, or to and from certain tourist a
reas of London. Imagine you live in Zone 2, and you work from Monday to Saturday in Zone 1 in London. Without the card, you'd have to pay about £ 242 a month, while the "Oyster Card" would pay less than £ 100.
The "Oyster Card" also has the great advantage that they can also travel on buses in London without having to buy a ticket.
