Destination London
London is an absolute must for any discerning traveller because as a capital city it has so much to offer from superb places to stay fantastic restaurants and bars plus an incredible amount of visitor attractions and places of interest.
The best method of getting around the city is to use the London Underground which is a metro system serving Greater London and the neighbouring areas. It is the worlds oldest underground railway and with two hundred and sixty eight stations and approximately two hundred and fifty miles of track it is also the longest metro system in the world.
Visitors to the city are spoilt for choice when it comes to accommodation with all different types being provided including luxurious hotels self catering properties a London bed and breakfast or a Guest House London right down to the most basic of hostels. Being a capital city the cost of accommodation tends to be more expensive than the rest of the UK but breaks here do not have to be expensive as it is possible to find a cheap London hotel.
When it comes to sightseeing in London the list is endless including Buckingham Palace Houses of Parliament St. Pauls Cathedral Tower Bridge Tate Gallery Harrods Imperial War Museum Covent Garden the Globe William Shakespeare Theatre Trafalgar Square and the Tower of London. A great way of seeing many of these sites is to take one of the many tours of London that are available perhaps even from the comfort of an open top bus if the weather is nice.
In the evenings you can enjoy dinner at one of the citys fantastic restaurants with just about every nationality of food being provided. Here you have a unique opportunity to try something different that you wouldnt normally find on restaurant menus back home. When was the last time you tried a Hungarian Lebanese Burmese or Nelapese dish? After dinner you can head to Londons West End to see one of the excellent theatre productions.
