Description
Through centuries of evolution, money has served as both a tool and a symbol, an invisible thread connecting stories of creation, governance, and value. Power emerges from collective vision and action, while magic represents the unseen forces that shape our world. Together, these forces reveal the ongoing battle between wisdom and greed, creation and destruction.
The City of London is steeped in history that resonates far beyond its borders. On this tour, you’ll explore how money has evolved over time, from ancient systems to modern finance, and uncover key themes that have influenced its development: technology, wars, sovereignty, greed, and philosophy.
A highlight of this journey is an ancient Roman temple hidden in the heart of the city. This site serves as a powerful link to Babylon, a civilization that laid the foundations for many of our systems of trade, governance, and belief. Babylon’s influence echoes through time, shaping ideas about wealth, power, and societal order that still resonate today.
This tour offers a unique perspective on how ancient myths and historical events have shaped London into a global center of commerce and innovation.
