London is one my favourite places. I can't say that I have travelled around the worlds that much
but having lived in England I have visited London a few times to visit friends, family and of course to do the cool stuff I wanted!
There are tons to do in London and I find that every time I visit there is always something new to do or something that haven't had the time to do when I visited last time.

I have found London to be equally beautiful in the winter with the snow but also in the spring-summer time. For a city with so many residents it is clean but most of all it has a really good underground system.
These are a few of the cool things you can do in London and places that I love.
Piccadilly Circus
Deffinitely the place I always visit when in London a not only it is on a central location of London but also it is easy to walk to near by places like oxford street where all the shops and some cool little coffee places hidden but also it is a nice walk on the opposite side from Piccadilly to convent garden were you will find many little book shops on the way and enjoy a nice walk of only 10 minutes to get to Convent garden.

Another favourite is Camden town.I always love to walk from the underground all the way down window shopping and discovering great stuff and get to the market where you can find so much stuff, eat food from different parts of the world, Definitely a fun thing to do. I think that In Camden town you could find anything you d want plus discover stuff you would definitely want to buy so be sure to have some cash on you!

The nest place is dreamy but can't say it is on my top list but still very beautiful. It is Notting hill!
It is such a nice place to walk with the beautiful houses and little shops and coffee shops it almost feels as if you are in a different world!

These places I think are a must for tourists each having stuff to do around there and things to see. For example in Notting Hill there's a nice museum-the brand and advertising museum that is lots of fun as it has old advertising and packaging from th 1920's till today, toys and magazines but also it is very interesting to see how products we use today have throughout time seen changes in their packaging - it is really fun to visit!
For me a must when going to London is to see a play. There are some really nice productions like the phantom of the opera which I have to say game chills when I went to see it a couple of years back. The Victoria and Albert museum is also good to visit and going by the underground you don't even have to go outside to get to it as there is an underground which takes you directly to the entrance! Apart from the standard exhibitions there are various ones which are not permanent and are usually very interesting to see,.
Of course there is allot of museums in London like the Natural history museum and the British museum which admittedly has nothing British in it and that is probably why it has a free entry! But you get to see so much stuff by visiting it as its like visiting a museum in Greece, Egypt etc.
The London bridge I have to say for me is very beautiful to walk down in the summer especially in the evening and there are nice little places you can sit and get something to eat and drink and gaze through the window to the river.
Also something I really enjoyed was the Jack the Ripper tour! It is a tour where you visit all the locations in Whitechapell were the murders took place and the guide tells you all this info about the killer and the evidence available. I went in the winter and it was foggy and it really put me in the mood!
