London Mini Guide

London is the capital city of England and the United Kingdom, and is the largest city in Europe. It is situated on the River Thames in southeast England and is a global centre for politics, culture, finance and fashion. London is an enormous city with such an endless selection of sights and attractions that it is really quite impossible to even begin to cover them in a small guide. Of course there are some key attractions that will likely be of interest to most people visiting the city.

Things to see/do in London City

The great thing about visiting London - whether your trip is a short city break or a longer holiday - is that many of the main attractions that give a real sense of the city are cheap, if not free to visit. Piccadilly Circus, Trafalgar Square and Leicester Square are all major tourist spots in the city, and it costs nothing to simply visit them and soak up the mood, madness, hustle and bustle of London city.

Covent Garden is an impressive and very atmospheric market - full of character and with quirky (and actually very talented) street performers, it is wonderful just to visit without actually spending any money. However the greatest pleasure here is availing of some cheap and often unusual bargains - even those on a strict budget will most likely want to indulge in some low cost retail therapy and will find the funds to purchase something or other here. The high-end shopping mecca of Knightsbridge is certain to be outside the budget of most, however a visit to the area is recommended for the experience alone - spend some time window shopping, shock yourself by looking at the price tags… And you never know whom you might see!

There are a number of buildings that should be seen in London - many have cheap or even free access, in fact London has 238 attractions that are free to enter or enjoy, meaning that even the most budget conscious traveler will probably run out of time before running out of things to do! Some of the more memorable of these include the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace (11.30am daily), the glorious Westminster Abbey, St. Paul's Cathedral, the arresting Parliament buildings and London's iconic Big Ben. Of course some of the most famous and popular attractions (and the more modern ones) do come with an admission fee, but in general they are quite cheap and certainly good value for money.

Some of the prevalent highlights and tourist attractions include the London Eye (the world's biggest Ferris wheel), the Tower of London and London Bridge, the Tate and Tate Modern Gallery, the Planetarium, London Zoo, and any one of the extensive selection of museums and galleries. Madame Tussaud's is hugely popular and tremendously entertaining, although not a cheap day out.

Eating out/nightlife in London City

For cheap eats in London, best head to the south side of Leicester Square where there are many low cost but respectable restaurants serving traditional English fare at a relatively low cost, ideal for thrifty dining. More exciting, yet with the same low cost, are the ethnic restaurants around London. The cosmopolitan nature of the city means a wonderful and diverse selection of great value, great quality restaurants. Caribbean, African, Indian, Asian, Mediterranean - there is such a vast range of food from every corner of the globe that you will be spoiled for choice. Look out for special deals at lunchtime or pre-theatre discounts. Buffets are also widely available and are a great cheap way of filling up!

The nightlife in London is revered throughout the world - a utopia for party animals, London has a never-ending supply of exciting, energetic, hedonistic clubs. Every particular genre and sub-genre of music is represented somewhere in the city, and of course if it's a traditional pub atmosphere you want, there is a wealth of those as well. The selection and quality of nightclubs and bars mean that you are pretty much guaranteed to find your kind of place, full of your kind of people - making your trip to London more unforgettable than you imagined possible.
