Astronaut Soichi Noguchi captured from ISS London, the capital of U.K.
London stands on the River Thames in the south-east of England, at the head of its 80km estuary leading to the North Sea. London has been a major settlement for two millennia. Londinium was founded by the Romans. The City of London, London’s ancient core and financial centre − an area of just 2.9km2) and colloquially known as the Square Mile − retains boundaries that closely follow its medieval limits. The city exerts a considerable impact upon the arts, commerce, education, entertainment, fashion, finance, healthcare, media, professional services, research and development, tourism and transportation. London has a diverse range of people and cultures, and more than 300 languages are spoken in the region.
The local scenery on the ground is as follows.
