There were many dangerous moments in the history of London. The Great Fire of London started on 2nd September 1666 at the baker’s on Pudding Lane. The fire started on Sunday and finished on Wednesday. It ruined many famous buildings, for example St Paul’s Cathedral. Many people lost their homes but, luckily, no more than 10 people lost their lives. In December 1952, there was The Great Smog of ’52. The air pollution lasted from Friday 5th to Tuesday 9th December. The air in the streets of London wasn’t safe. It was black and poisonous. Some people stayed at home all the time, but over 12,000 people died because of the smog.
There were some terrorist attacks on the London underground too (we call it The Tube). The Tube is one of the tourist attractions in London. Over a billion people travel on the London underground every year.
The first attack was in 1883, and the last big terrorist attack, which killed 52 people, was in 2005. At the moment, London is safer than before and St Paul’s Cathedral is more beautiful than before the fire.
