In the morning, the city's decibels seem lower than in the evening, when Londoners gather in the many pubs, standing and filling the benches... that's when shouts and laughter reign supreme. This is where the so-called "pub culture" comes from, a phenomenon that began in the 19th century and gives a sense of community to these famous public houses .
