Following the snaking river Thames,
London is a truly remarkable capital
city. This vast metropolis is home to
many diverse cultures which help make London
a truly 21st century city, offering theatre,
fine dining, historical parks and palaces,
designer shopping, sporting events and
festivals.
Easy accessible by road, rail
or air, London is home to the Royal family,
numerous art collections, sporting clubs and
the centre of politics in the United Kingdom,
The Houses of Parliament.
Major banks and financial institutions
have set up offices in the city and, more
recently the re-developed Docklands area,
cementing London’s importance as an important
global economic centre.
Despite an ever-growing population of
over seven million people, London enjoys a
large number of parks and recreational areas,
greater than any other comparable city in the
world in fact. Such spaces are put to
good use all year round, providing the
opportunity for concerts, walking, picnics,
relaxation or other sporting activities.
World-famous nightlife, designer
boutiques, department stores to street
markets….London has something for
everyone!
