The Tower of London，not a single tower but a large group，was built to guard London．
Besides William and Henry VIII，the tower's history has other famous names in British history．In 1389 a clerk of works （現場監(jiān)工員） named Geoffrey Chaucer-author of The Canterbury Tales-oversaw （監(jiān)督） the building of the Tower Wharf．In 1671 Colonel Blood tried to steal the crown jewels （皇冠上鑲的寶石） after overpowering the elderly Jewel House keeper．（Blood was caught but later pardoned．） Today the jewels remain in the tower as they have since Blood's day．
For six centuries this place was also home to a group of animals from elephants to big cats．It stopped being used as an animals' home in 1835 and its animals were moved to the London Zoo．
Today visitors can walk the walls，visit guard towers and see the crown jewels．Guards at the tower，popularly known as beefeaters，not only guard the tower but also give interesting tours that are among the most popular parts of any visit．
How to Get There
Trains and the Dockland Light Railway stop near the tower．Buses 15，42，78 and 100 reach the tower，and riverboats stop at Tower Pier．Taxis，bicycles，and foot power are also good ways to reach the tower．Driving is a less attractive choice because of the expensive parking．
When to Go
The tower is open all year round，except during the Christmas holidays （December 24 to 26）and January 1．School holidays and summertime are the busiest times．
How to Visit
As expected at a place that has seen so much history，there is enough of interest at the Tower of London to keep visitors busy for days．Stop at the Welcome Center for visitor information on everything from the crown jewels to family fun activities．

Double science
    It's a big month for the Science Museum，with a new gallery and an exhibition opening.The Science City gallery tells the story of London between 1550 and 1800 when major scientific breakthroughs were happening across the city - from Newton's laws of physics to the birth of microscopes allowing us to see the tiny creatures that live among us.If that isn't enough，there's also an exhibition on how art and science have worked closely together over the centuries and continue to do so today.
