5、风土人情与当地特色
由于1851年伦敦第一届世界博览会的成功，英国于1862年再次举办了第三届世界博览会，地点依然选择了伦敦。
而伦敦能够再一次成为举办世界博览会的地点有其深沉的原因。
The International of 1862, or Great London Exposition, was a world’s fair. It was held from 1 May to 1 November 1862, beside the gardens of the Royal Horticultural Society, South Kensington, London, England, on a site that now houses museums including the Natural History Museum and the Science Museum (London).
1862年英国伦敦世博会
伦敦有2000年的悠久历史，是历代王朝建都之所在，名胜古迹众多。
拥有计多世界一流的博物馆、美术馆和著名建筑，是世界著名的旅游胜地，每年吸引着大量的海内外游客到此观光。
她还有着丰富多彩的文化教育生活，众多的世界著名大学、学院和其它教育机构，吸引着世界各地的学者来此求学深造。
伦敦交通发达、地铁、火车、地面公共汽车连接成网，旅行十分便利。
伦敦还可以品尝到世界各地的风味食品，地处市中心的中国城（唐人街）聚集着众多的中国餐馆和中国商场，它是中国人活动的中心。
泰晤士河是伦敦的生命线，绵延300多公里，
两岸风景秀丽。
London is the capital of England and of Great Britain, the political center of the Commonwealth, and a major port, 65km. from the mouth of the River Thames. Administratively it consists of: ①the City of London (area 2.5sq.km., pop. 5,400), the original nucleus, retaining a medieval system of government of courts of aldermen and an elected lord mayor. ②Greater London, a metropolitan county (pop. 7,111,500), made up of 12 Inner London boroughs (area 303sq.km., pop.2,809,100) and 20 Outer London boroughs (area 570sq.km.,pop. 4,302,400 )
The City, on the north bank of the Thames, is one of the world's leading banking and financial centers. It contains Guildhall (1411-23) and St Paul's Cathedral (1675-1710). The Port of London lies to the east and its docks extend for 25 miles along the Thames. The Tower of London (11th c.) lies just east of the City. The West End includes Westminster, the area of central government administration, St James' Palace (1521-1533), several parks, and fine examples of domestic architecture (esp. 18th-19th centuries). Industries (esp. in the East End and the suburbs): printing, publishing, electrical and mechanical engineering, chemicals, clothing, food processing, plastics. Some of London's cultural institutions are the University of London (1836), the British Museum (1753), the National Gallery (1838), the Covent Garden Opera House (1856-1858) and Royal Festival
伦敦最繁华的牛津街（oxford street）。
和海德公园一样，牛津街也成了我常去的地方。
在这条不到2公里的街道上，据说云集了300多家大型商家，还有许多中小型的商店，全世界的游客纷纷来此购物、游览，这本身就构成成了一道特殊的景观。
除了牛津街，我通常还去与之相连的摄政街和中国城，在此一并介绍。
牛津街不是步行街，公共巴士、出租者很多，两旁的建筑古色古香。
伦敦美食（delicacy）丰富多样，被称为全世界的“饮食之都”，从不同口味的菜系到不同等级价格的菜种，一应俱全，无论是中式、泰式，或是墨西哥菜，还是原滋原味的伦敦特色菜等等，都让人垂涎欲滴，欲罢不能。
举例：烤牛肉和约克郡布丁
This is England's traditional Sunday lunch , which is a family affair。
This dish is not usually eaten as a dessert like other puddings but instead as part of the main course or at a starter. Yorkshire pudding, made from flour, eggs and milk, is a sort of batter baked in the oven and usually moistened with gravy；The traditional way to eat a Yorkshire pudding is to have a large, flat one filled with gravy and vegetables as a starter of the meal.
因此，1862年伦敦世博会共吸引了纵多的参展者，在本次展出的所有展品中最引人注目的无疑是蒸汽机、锅炉、火车头和铸钢产品，工艺性很强的玻璃制品也给参观者留下深刻的印象。
