London

London has served as a regional centre in southwestern Ontario since the 19th century. The city follows the Thames River, where the North and South Thames meet at the Forks in its downtown core. Victoria Park, laid out in 1874, provides a formal green centre among civic buildings and older residential streets. London’s cultural life includes Museum London, with its collection of Canadian art, and the Covent Garden Market, a longstanding downtown food market. Western University, founded in 1878, anchors a major campus north of the river and reinforces the city’s role in education and research.
