There are so many different parts to the city of London that your visiting experience will depend on which part you travel to. It is effectively lots of towns directly joined onto one another, with these being some of the highlights:
Covent Garden & The Strand – Draw an enormous crowd of people, as this wide street running from Trafalgar Square towards the city is chock full of fascinating shops, theatres and hotels. Covent garden leads of the Strand and is filled with cafes, bars and street entertainers (magicians, dancers, mime artists, etc.).
Kensington – You will find yourself right at the gates of Kensington Palace and in just the right location for not only shopping but for looking for members of the royalty. If you have ever wanted to see a member of the royal family, then this is as good a place as any. And, if you do not catch a glimpse of one, you will still undoubtedly get many awesome pictures.
Oxford Circus & Piccadilly Circus – Among the most iconic of all London’s sites and visited by millions of tourists every year. Situated in the West End of London, Piccadilly Circus serves as a central hub and common meeting place and is thus very busy and a tad untidy. London’s main shopping district is Oxford Street which can be best entered from Oxford Circus.
Soho & Leicester Square – Soho is a very lively London town where you are sure to find excellent bars and fabulous eateries. Leicester Square, situated adjacent to Soho, is well known for the UK films that premier there. Be sure to take your camera and autograph book along as there are often movie and TV stars who frequent these areas.
Westminster – The home of the UK government for the United Kingdom can be found in Westminster, as can the world famous Westminster Abbey. Huge, stately structures are viewable from each corner of every road, and you will be amazed at the amount of history that you will see. Relive the days when the UK was at its most glorious with a walk around Westminster.
