Taking A Tour Of London, England
Taking A Tour Of London, England
New York City has been described as the city that never sleeps, but you could easily apply the moniker to London as well. Since London was first a city, it has been teeming with life and anything you could possibly want to do can be done in the city's center. A city so rich in tradition, activities, and history needs more than a cursory glance of course, but much of what the city has to offer can be experienced in a few day's time. A good starting point is to immerse yourself in the city's history. You will come across everything from dark medieval secrets to glorious, priceless crown jewels. The city's history is so rich and vast, that there is something for everyone, even those who claim to have little interest in history. Be sure to pay a visit to Madame Tussauds, which is the world's best lifelike wax museum, where you can see famous people not just from the UK, but from all around the world. Also, do not miss out on the London Dungeon, where the horrors of medieval London are bought to life. Inside the Tower of London, you will discover the crown jewels and hear tales of prisons made especially for only the most important prisoners. The National Portrait Gallery brings history and art together with exhibits of portraits depicting Britain's most famous historical figures. Plenty of small museums and art galleries are found in London's city center that are worth a stop, so make sure to leave time in your schedule to peek your head inside. For the professional shopper, a stroll down Oxford Street is highly recommended. If the bustle of the city begins to wear on you, however, a stopover in Hyde Park brings the peace of the countryside to the city. Outdoor markets are one of London's highlights, and you will find Portobello Market northeast of Hyde Park. London's history does not exist only on the busiest streets. Charming side streets take the visitor to times past and to unexpected treasures such as Covent Gardens in central London. In the center of town, the London eye provides a bird's eye view of the city and provides a comprehensive display of all that London has to offer. Once the day of sightseeing and shopping has come to a close, it is time to head to the pub with a group of friends for a couple of draughts. Once you have tipped a few back to lubricate the soul, it is time to hit one of London's numerous dance clubs to enjoy a night of any kind of dancing imaginable. The international flair of the city encourages dancing from techno, to trance, to hip hop. Do not forget about the Latin and ethnic dancing as well as the raves. And because London features almost too many rugby and football teams to count, you can always catch a game live.
