Brief Description
"The massive White Tower is a typical example of Norman military architecture, whose influence was felt throughout the kingdom. It was built on the Thames by William the Conqueror to protect London and assert his power. The Tower of London – an imposing fortress with many layers of history, which has become one of the symbols of royalty – was built around the White Tower."
伦敦塔
"宏伟的白塔是诺曼底军事建筑的典型，对整个英国的建筑风格产生了巨大影响。伦敦塔是威廉一世沿泰晤士河建造的，目的是为了保护伦敦，并占领领土。伦敦塔围绕白塔而建，是一个具有悠久历史的堡垒，也是王室权力的象征。"
