Description

Despite the upheaval of the Brexit process, the English capital has constantly ranked as the most-visited city in Europe. This immense metropolis offers tourists a range of activities, from the British Museum, where entry is free, to Westminster Abbey, the historical cathedral of London, and to Buckingham Palace, where tourists flock to photograph the changing of the guard. London is also the capital of shopping, from Bond Street to Harrods, the quintessential department store, and Camden Town market. National Geographic Traveler: London offers suggestions for planning an ideal itinerary. The more adventurous traveler looking for unusual activities will find plenty to try, and the guide covers all the essential tourist attractions and the most exciting events to attend. There is information on lifestyle, history, and contemporary culture, special excursions and walks with illustrated maps, and useful tips for an enjoyable stay.
