"LONDON" London by hevbell
London Travel Guide: 23,054 reviews and 47,246 photos
London is definitely my favourite city and I have been there several times in the last few years. I managed to pack loads into my last visit including the National Gallery, Tate Modern, Kensington Gardens, Notting Hill, Camden, Science & Victoria & Albert Museums and The London Eye. Even though I'd been on a few short trips in recent years I still found plenty to do that kept it new and interesting as well as visiting some old favourites. My favourite parts of the city though have to be the area around Covent Garden & Camden market.
London is the capital of England and a huge huge city which has something for everyone. You can visit many historic sites as well as art galleries, monuments, parks, museums [fun or more serious] and take a cruise on the Thames.
If you want some entertainment the city is well known for its theatre productions - all the big musicals/ shows, plays etc, - has numerous cinemas with many fim premieres being held in London and of course music concerts covering everything from pop to classical.
London also has the best shopping in Britain. So its a must-visit for a shopaholic like me! Everything from the luxury goods of Harrods and designer shops of Bond Street to the markets of Camden and Portbello and everything in between. A shopaholics paradise!!
- Pros:Something for everyone
- Cons:Can be expensive

Next time visit london I wil surely check Camden. Thanks for the great tips.
Interesting pages on London. There is always more to learn about this great city! Great tips! ~Elaine~
Very nice page Heather!
London can really be expensive!!!
Great page Heather!!! I enjoyed reading it a lot! I have been so many times to London, and this page brings back so many memories for me! But there is so much I still have to see and do here! I always love to visit this city! :-)
A lot of memories and more to be seen.
I can't stop missing London... despite the dirtiness and the crowds! I always forget to go walk the Abbey Road. :)
I was in London August 2002 and had a wonderful time. Your page brought back many great memories. Well done.
I want to see London sometime soon. It's great pics!
I wasn’t hugely impressed with the gallery either. London sure is a great city though, and a lot more to see than that. Nice page.
