Vibrant culture and history
The UK’s capital city needs no introduction. The hardest part of your visit to London won’t be finding things to do, it will be narrowing down your list! The amazing variety of experiences offered by this eclectic city are what makes it so world-renowned.
First, discover some of London’s rich history. There are too many museums to name, so make sure to look up ones that interest you. Some of the most popular include the Tower of London (where the Royal Family’s crown jewels are held), the British Museum and the Natural History Museum.
The UK’s parliament is next to Westminster Abbey, where 40 coronations and Royal weddings have taken place since 1066. This includes the coronations of Queen Elizabeth II and her son, King Charles III. London’s iconic clock, Big Ben, is also nearby, as is the Royal Family’s famous residence Buckingham Palace.
Then, what about London’s thriving cultural offerings? Admire both classical and modern art in spectacular buildings at the National Gallery, Tate Modern or Tate Britain. The iconic West End is full to bursting with theatres, putting on both new and long-running shows every day of the week.
Between all this, spend some time wandering the city streets, exploring by tube or bus and soaking in the dynamic atmosphere. Board the famous London Eye for bird’s-eye views of the skyline. Stroll along the South Bank to Borough Market, where cuisine from all over the world is sold.
London is the ideal destination because it has something for everyone. Whatever you want to see or do, London will have it. Just make sure to plan ahead as some experiences require tickets that might sell out. After you’ve left, you’re sure to want to come back for more.
