Hello boys and girls!

My name is Elisabeth, but my friends call me Beth.

I am going to travel with you. Remember to pick up your passport to travel.

Our first stop is the United Kingdom.

This country is composed of four territories: England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. For this reason its flag is a mixture of four flags, as you can see in the picture.

It is called the Union Jack.

In the United Kingdom people don’t use euros. They buy with pounds. In these coins, there is the picture of the queen.

The capital city of the United Kingdom is London. In London you can visit a lot of things. There are museums, for example: The British Museum, The Science Museum, The Wax Museum… You can also visit The London Eye, The Buckingham Palace and the Big Ben.  This last building has got a huge clock on its top.

How much do you know about the United Kingdom?
