"The City of Pop and Rock'n'Roll" London by Elainehead
London Travel Guide: 23,056 reviews and 47,246 photos
So far, I have already been 6 times to London!
This city is one of my favorites because there's always something going on here. Also you can easily walk around the city center or use the excellent public transportation system.
Why I love London?
- GIGS!!
- In general, the city is pretty much clean (compared to Nice, France).
- Easy to get around with public transportation.
- Multiethnic city
- Architecture
- Safe (I feel safer in London than in Paris or Nice)
We were in a guitar shop in Denmark Street and look who was there: guitar player Yngwie Malmsteen.
I wonder why is it called "Toilet Guitar"... LOL!!!
- Pros:Easy to get around by tube or bus, concerts, music, fashion
- Cons:Stairs in the tube & train stations, Weather, High Cost of Living
- In a nutshell:More Than Royalty & Fish 'n' Chips!

Very neat tips!!! I stayed in Camden town last time but didn't have enough time to check out the neighborhood. I was busy with Big Ben, Trafalgar Square etc... :)
Thanks for your London tips, even if you didn't get everywhere. I plan to visit Camden, maybe by the canal, so appreciate those photos.
