London
London, the capital of England. Where tourists visit in their thousands each year, London boasts both old and new sights from the Tower of London to the London Eye.
When to go London is pretty much a year round City, yet there are more likely to be events going on throughout the summer and Christmas months. If however you were to find yourself here in either Spring or Autumn there is always something to see or do.
Shopping To shop in London can be both exciting and exuberating. The wide range of shops and prices extend from Oxford Street to high street. The top ten shopping areas are:
Oxford Street – here you will find over 300 shops and landmark stores one of which is the very well known Selfridges, so this may be for the more extendable budget.
Regent Street and Jermyn Street – This will suite the more mid budget types, you will find more high street priced clothes than Oxford street but go on to Jermyn Street and you will find some of the more historic shops which have been long known for gentleman’s clothing and bespoke shirt makers.
New Bond Street – This is definitely for those of you who aren’t afraid to splash the cash! The shops that line New Bond Street are full of the latest designer trends and fashion. It is one of the more exclusive shopping areas so keep your eyes pilled as you may spot the odd celebrity out and about.
Carnaby Street – This was where the cultural revolution of the swinging sixties first happened. To this day it is still known as for its trendier atmosphere.
Covent Garden – Here will offer shops with quirky finds to the latest urban outfit. You can purchase some gourmet food in this area too and don’t forget to have a look around the Arts and Craft Market.
Kings Road – This will offer not only clothes but items for the home too. It’s laid back leisurely approach to shopping paired with cafes suites those who want to take their time and go at a gentle pace.
Knightsbridge – Here you will find shoppers from around the world, purchasing up to the minute and bang on trend clothes. This is for the very serious shopper who doesn’t have any kind of budget!
Notting Hill – This is the place to be if you are interested in vintage finds or antiques. This area is also famous for its market which is situated along Portobello Road.
Canary Wharf – Although this is home to some of the UK’s leading businesses it also boasts 7 days a week shopping, it is sleek and modern and has over 200 shops, restaurants and cafes.
Westfield London – This is the newest shopping area to spring to life with London City. It is largest shopping centre in Europe and houses between 250-300 different shops, 15 types from around the world along with restaurants and cafes which allows this to be a great place to not only shop but eat and meet with friends too.
Eating Out in London can be sitting in a very relaxed, laid back café or all dressed up and eating with silver service at the Ritz. As London is so large and one of the more popular Cities in the world it has to continually grow with the times but make sure it doesn’t lose its history. By doing this it also has to cater for all tastes and budgets. There are an abundance of Italian, Indian, Chinese, Malaysian, French, Mediterranean, Japanese, Thai and Traditional English restaurants all over London. We even have our own China Town where you can find traditionally cooked food from the Far East. London will also be able to cater for any occasion too. If it’s for an anniversary, birthday, Christmas time, Romantic dinner for two or a family meal out there’s plenty of choice.
Nightlife and Entertainment Going out in London can be a brilliant experience. The wide range of places to go and things to do is amazing. There are theatres by the dozen, here you can choose any type of show to see such as the Sound of Music to Wicked, or Les Miserables to Chicago. Besides going to the Theatre London also offers opera houses one of which is the Royal Opera House which is one of the worlds greatest opera houses. Here you will be able to watch the Royal Ballet Company put on performances of the highest standard.
Getting Around in London is relatively easy. There are Buses, Trains, Tubes, Trams and the River Thames to get about on, all plentiful and the majority of the time has a quick service. They all have set time tables so a journey around, through or even from and to London can be navigated with ease. Also not to forget our black cabs, they are constantly driving around London covering this vast area and there to pick you up and get you to your destination on time. They may work out a tad more expensive than the other forms of transport but you will benefit from it being a more relaxed and comfortable journey.
