The national flag of England is a white cloth with a red straight cross of St. George, who is considered the patron saint of the English. The first mention of the flag of England with the St. George's Cross dates back to 1545.The Cross of St. George is one of the first known emblems of England. It became an English symbol in the Middle Ages, during the Crusades. St. George became the patron saint of England in the XIII century.

Eden project
The idea to create a garden of eden on earth belongs to British businessman Tim Smith. Construction began in 1998, and already in 2001 the first visitors visited here. The Eden project is a huge complex, in the center of which there are two greenhouses built in the form of domes. Inside you can find thousands of plants peculiar to the climate of the Mediterranean and the tropics: bamboo, palm trees, bananas, rubber and olive trees, vineyards, etc. All this became possible thanks to the creation of an ideal climate inside the domes, which is controlled by a computer: automatic regulation of humidity and temperature. In Eden, they take care of nature so much that they use purified rainwater for irrigation of plants, but not tap water.
