Greenwich, London
The district of Greenwich has two famous landmarks. The first is the Greenwich Observatory, home of time! The prime meridian line runs through here and acts as the reference for standardised Greenwich Mean Time throughout the entire world. The second attraction is the Millennium Dome. It is the largest domed structure in the world - 1km in circumference, 50 meters high and has a capacity of 50,000 people. Something like a huge tent!
W dzielnicy Greenwich znajduja sie dwa slynne obiekty. Pierwszy z nich to Obserwatorium Greenwich. Tu przebiega poludnik zerowy, stanowiacy odniesienie przy obliczaniu czasu. Druga atrakcja to Millennium Dome. Jest to najwieksza na swiecie budowla o strukturze kopuly - ma 1 km w obwodzie, 50 m wysokosci i moze pomiescic 50.000 ludzi. Cos w rodzaju ogromnego namiotu!
