What are the best places to go in London?
This is a very broad question that depends on what you are looking for here are a few highlights relating to places in London which I have recently visited that were much better than expected: BFI IMAX http://www.bfi.org.uk/ Although a little more expensive than standards cinemas (tickets around £13) the IMAX on London’s Southbank is simply breathtaking with a screen over 20 metres high! (nearly the height of five double-decker buses) Shunt Nightclub http://www.thisislocallondon.co.uk/ Shunt is a great nightclub hidden away under/inside London Bridge Station. This is a perfect example of the kind of place you wouldn’t know was there unless you got invited or heard about it from a friend. The club is situated in the old storage silo of London Bridge Station and is massive once inside, well worth a visit for a strange random night out. Columbia Road Flower Market http://en.wikipedia.org/ Is in East London and runs on Sunday morning. It takes place on (surprisingly) Columbia Road and cons
If you only have the chance to see one place in London, I think you have to visit Westminster Abbey. Westminster Abbey is one of the greatest examples of Medieval Architecture known to man. One of my favorite parts of the Abbey is the coronation chamber, where almost all of the English Monarchs were officially crowned, from Edward the Confessor of the Saxon line, to Elizabeth II Windsor. I also really enjoyed the tombs; where you can see so many of the great people throughout British history’s final resting place. I also really enjoyed the Shrine, Chapels, Organ, Quire and Cloisters.
