Travelling To London: What To Do, Discover And Love In London

By Markus Bichler


Do you sometimes see yourself holding a warm cup of tea and catching an old bus to beautiful markets, museums, galleries and festivals after having a night out at an English bar well then London could be just what you are looking for!

London is such a multicultural destination with an eclectic blend of trends, traditions, food-styles and architectural mastery. There are very few cities in the world where you will see businessmen in sharp suits rubbing shoulders with punk rockers in the packed tube train!

There is a great deal to explore in this history and culture rich town where tradition mixes with the new from the grandeur of Parliament to the innovative design of Norman Foster's "Gherkin". A stroll along the south bank from The Tate Britain will lead you to The London Eye where you can feast your eyes on all of it.

You may want to dig deeper to discover the true London, via the fascinating bustle of Camden town towards the antiques of Portobello market. The citys vibrant arts scene is omnipresent, with works by, amongst others, the elusive graffiti artist Banksy`. As the centre of British heritage, London has a huge variety of museums and galleries, which are all free of charge, covering the rich story of the British nation and its traditions.

Uncover the energetic party atmosphere, whether you prefer to shake the night away at Ministry of Sound, see an awesome band at the Hammersmith Apollo or have a cold beer or two in one of the traditional pubs. As a key element of your trip to London, experiencing a musical downtown cannot be missed. And let's remember the countless festivals and fairs that happen in wonderful Hyde Park.

For those who love a good bargain, whatever budget might be, be assured you're going to get your moneys worth. Roam Oxford Street for high street paradise or pick up a cheaper vintage number in Spitalfields market.
