“If you’re curious, London’s an amazing place.”
“London always reminds me of a brain. It is similarly convoluted and circuitous. A lot of cities, especially American ones like New York and Chicago, are laid out in straight lines. Like the circuits on computer chips, there are a lot of right angles in cities like this. But London is a glorious mess.”
The Square Mile
The City of London
The City of London vies with New York City’s Downtown Manhattan as the financial capital of the world. London’s foreign exchange market, described by Reuters as ‘the crown jewel of London’s financial sector’, is the biggest in the world. The London Stock Exchange, Lloyd’s of London and the Bank of England are all based in the City. Over 500 banks have offices in the City.
The City is made up of 25 wards, with administration at the historic Guildhall. Other historic sites include St Paul’s Cathedral, Royal Exchange, Mansion House, Old Bailey, and Smithfield Market. Although not within the City, the adjacent Tower of London is part of its old defensive perimeter.
The City has its own independent police force, the City of London Police. It is home to the private The City of London School.
Within the City, the Corporation owns and runs both Smithfield Market and Leadenhall Market. It owns and helps fund the Old Bailey. The City has one hospital, St Bartholomew’s Hospital, also known as ‘Barts’. The City is the third largest UK patron of the arts. It oversees the Barbican Centre.
The London Port Health Authority, which is the responsibility of the Corporation, is responsible for all port health functions on the tidal part of the Thames, including various seaports and London City Airport.

“It is difficult to speak adequately or justly of London. It is not a pleasant place; it is not agreeable, or cheerful, or easy, or exempt from reproach. It is only magnificent.”
Temple
One of the main legal districts in London
The Temple is an area of London surrounding Temple Church. It is one of the main legal districts in London and a notable centre for English law, historically and in the present day. Temple contains many barristers’ chambers and solicitors’ offices, as well as some notable legal institutions such as the Employment Appeal Tribunal. The Temple Church is one of the most historic and beautiful churches in London. The Church was built by the Knights Templar, the order of crusading monks founded to protect pilgrims on their way to and from Jerusalem in the 12th century.
