A burning replica of 17th-century London, U.K., floated on a barge on the city's River Thames to mark the 350th anniversary of the Great Fire on Sunday. The 1666 inferno destroyed most of the walled inner city dating back to Roman times — a bustling, congested maze of tightly packed wooden houses. It forced London to rebuild anew from the ashes.
