London makes its case as the capital of Europe on many levels. Certainly its ability to overwhelm you with the intensity of it's urban sprawl is impressive. There is always a host of new attractions waiting to be explored. Begin with a copy of a good street map which includes the extensive underground transit system. Central London is a good place to get the bearings you need to enjoy London as the great walking City it truly is.
Don't miss some of the ever-popular landmarks, in between you might do a few of the many museums. London is famous for its great variety of shopping from the grandeur Harrods in Knightsbridge to the handmade crafts at Covent Garden. Soon the London nightlife will buzz with excitement. Live theatre is a must but there is so much more to choose from as well. A good way to decide is to sit a spell in a pub and soak up your pint amidst the friendly atmosphere while you appreciate the unique London lifestyle.
| GENERAL INFO |
London by roughguidesDirectory|| (in association w/ travelnow & carnaval.com).
"For the visitor, too, London is a thrilling place - and since the beginning of the new millennium, the city has also been overtaken by an exceptionally buoyant mood. Thanks to the lottery and millennium-oriented funding frenzy of the last few years, virtually every one of London's world-class museums, galleries and institutions has been reinvented, from the Royal Opera House to the British Museum. With the completion of the Tate Modern and the London Eye, the city can now boast the world's largest modern art gallery and Ferris wheel; there's also a new tube extension and the first new bridge to cross the Thames for over a hundred years. "
The hard copy Guide is popular with residents too but alas no search to review their insightful and timely hits on the almost present.
