All about London
London is one of the world’s great old cities, situated on the banks of the famous River Thames. The city boasts some of the world’s most recognisable landmarks including the Tower Bridge, Trafalgar Square, Westminster Abbey, Big Ben and the London Eye. While Buckingham Palace and the Royal family draw big crowds, it is London's diverse population that is the lifeblood of the city. Together, its residents speak more than 300 languages and are made up of cultures from all over the globe — ensuring you can experience a wide array of entertainment and food on your trip. While fish and chips are still a British favourite, they are rivalled today by curry as the nation’s most famous dish, which you can enjoy in any one of the Indian and Pakistani restaurants dotted throughout the city. And of a course a true London experience would not be complete without a trip to a traditional pub.
What are the top things to do in London?
Hyde Park
London’s biggest and best-known park, Hyde Park is home to the world-famous Speaker’s Corner, which is occupied by debates and performance artists every week. It’s also home to several memorial features and the famous Serpentine Lido (swimming pool) where you can go paddle-boating and enjoy a moment of nature in the middle of a big city.
Camden
Head to Camden in North London, one of the city’s hippest neighbourhoods, known for its alternative culture that attracts a vibrant and diverse community. The eclectic Camden Market features street food from all over the world and stalls selling an eclectic mix of old records, secondhand books, trinkets, and unique artwork. You could rummage for hours through the vintage clothing racks to find the perfect piece.
The Thames Path
Explore London on the nearly 60 kilometres long Thames Path, where you will find many quieter city spots. You can see all the sights on foot or jump on a bike and cycle the length of the path, with public beaches along the way. You can also stop by a good old English pub along the way and enjoy a bite and a pint.
