London West End
Me and my family are going to london (west end) on friday?
please could anyone tell us what we can do throughout the whole day, we will get there as early as possible and leave in the evening,
we will get all day underground tube tickets so we can go to different places.
i have 2 girls aged 8-9 yrs old
we want to finish the day with going to the odeon cinema in leicester square….
any other ideas would be great!!
Thanks
There’s lots to see.and visit. Here’s a brief list of the main attractions.
Palaces – Buckingham Palace, Kensington Palace, Hampton Court Palace. All of these are open to visitors.
Museums and Galleries – Natural History Museum, Science Museum, National Gallery, National Portrait Gallery, The Tate and Tate Modern, British Museum, Imperial War Museum.
Famous Buildings and Monuments etc – The Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, Whitehall and Downing Street, Clarence House, St James Palace, Tower of London, Trafalgar Square, Marble Arch, Monument, Tower Bridge, London Eye.
Churches – Westminster Abbey, St Paul’s Cathedral, St Clement Dane, Temple Church, Saint Martin in the field.
There’s such a lot to see I can’t possibly list them all here. I’d recommend an Eyewitness Travel Guide as they’re very comprehensive and include attractions, opening times, photos and maps.
Try the website for The Original London Walks as they do loads of guided tours around the city, They’re very cheap and you can take Jack the Ripper, Harry Potter, The Da Vinci Code, Charles Dickens, Museum and Ghost walks. They are very good indeed and you get to see the places lots of tourists don’t eve know about.
Travel by tube or bus, It’s cheaper than by taxi and very convenient. You can get travel cards from your nearest tube station.
The main shopping streets are Oxford and Regent Street. You can try New Bond Street for Designer labels. Camden for alternative clothing. There’s a big mall in Brent Cross also. Fortnum and Mason of Picadilly, known as the Queen’s grocers s a fantastic store as is Harrods of Knightsbridge. Leadenhall Market is lovely also and its been in one of the Harry Potter movies.
As for food, there are places to eat everywhere. China Town in Soho is good and Brick Lane for Indian Food in particular.
There are lots of public parks and green areas in London. I’d recommend lunch al fresco if it’s fine.
Have fun.
