London Architecture encompasses diverse styles and designs that have emerged and evolved over the city’s long history. From its Roman origins with structures like the London Wall, to the Medieval styles of Westminster Abbey and the Tower of London, the city’s architecture has been shaped by various cultural, political, and social influences. London has experienced many styles, including the Tudor, Stuart, Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian periods, with iconic buildings such as St. Paul’s Cathedral, the British Museum, and the Houses of Parliament. In more recent times, the city has embraced Modernist, Postmodern, and Contemporary architecture, showcasing innovative and cutting-edge designs like The Shard, The Gherkin, and the Tate Modern extension. This rich architectural tapestry reflects London’s dynamic evolution as one of the world’s most iconic cities.
