The most populous municipality in the European Union, London's history goes back to its founding by the Romans and it is now one of the world's most important business, financial and cultural centres. Its influence in politics, education, entertainment, media, fashion and the arts contributes to its status as a major global city, housing four World Heritage Sites: the Tower of London, the historic settlement of Greenwich, the Royal Botanic Gardens in Kew and the site comprising Westminster Palace and Abbey and St. Margaret's Church.
London is home to many museums, galleries and other institutions. The British Museum houses historic artefacts from around the world including the famous Parthenon frieze and an excellent Egypt section and the British Library at St Pancras is the UK's national library with 150 million items. The city boasts extensive art collections, primarily in the National Gallery in Trafalgar Square and in the Tate Britain and Tate Modern, both located along the river Thames.
