Ruins of the Roman Wall

On the Walking the Walls of Londinium walk, I noticed the remains of Roman influence on London. London started as a Roman city, which is evident both by the ruins left by the Romans themselves and the Roman influences on architecture in the city. Many of my pictures are of the ruins themselves. I also included a few pictures of buildings which use Greco-Roman architecture, especially Corinthian columns. I also noticed the contrast between the old and the new, as evidenced by the proximity of ruins to the very modern Museum of London. The walk showed how the history of the city has continued to be an influence on London.
