London is a huge and often overpowering town, but the central area is ramdown enough to make walking an admirable way of seeing the view.
The four London tours depict here are designed to authorise you to scout widely different neighbourhood of London and get the bear not just of the tourist highlights but also of the more workaday modem town.
The walking in London takes you revolution the must see tableau from St Paul’s Cathedral to Trafalgar Square; if you’re pressed for age this is one you’ll probably want to go for. The second accumulate on the Strand and Fleet St, two famous thoroughfares which tie Westminster with the City and were the haunt of such famous London luminaries as Samuel Pepys, Dr Johnson and Charles Dickens. This walk also gives you the chance to take in some Christopher Wren masterpieces other than St Paul’s.
The third walk lets you laybare the south bank of the Thames, one of the most happening neighbourhood of London where mutate and new-fangledisation are taking place at a staggering pace. Here you can see some fine new-fangled building like Terence Conran’s Design Museum as well as exploring some of the murkier bits of Southwark arevolution the old Ctie Prison.
The fourth walking in London takes you even further off the beaten track, into the East End of London, an area which is still very run-down in parts and not so immediately pleasing to the visitor. Take the trouble to scout it, however, and you’ll get a coupd’oeil of London’s rich cultural divergence as well as seeing how pockets of renewal continue to rub shoulders with pathetic dereliction.

Trafalgar Square is to the east and Buckingham Palace to the west. If you want to watch the Changing of the Guard, it takes place quotidian at 11.30 am from April to August and on alternate days from August to April. The best place to position yourself is by the gates of Buck House, but the crowds are awesome. Cross back into beautiful St James’s Park and follow the lake to its east end. Turn right onto Horse Guards Rd which takes you past the Cabinet War Rooms, offering an extraordinary insight into the dark days of WWII.
Continue south along Horse Guards Rd, then turn left on Great George St, which leads to Westminster Abbey, the Houses of Parliament and Westminster Bridge. Westminster Abbey is so rich in history you need half a day to do it.
