Have a wander down Brick Lane on a Sunday and take in the colourful sights and eclectic smells. All sorts of little stalls to nibble away at, alongside vintage fashion and unusual bric a brac
Shakespeare's Globe, a reconstruction of the legendary theatre offers standing tickets in summer in the "yard" for £5 and offer the best view of the Bard's plays. Kristin Knox, The Clothes Whisperer
Choral services at 5.30pm from Monday to Saturday, and at 10.30am and 3.30pm on Sundays.
Just the most beautiful place for cream teas. Follow in the footsteps of Woolf, Brooke, Keynes and Wittgenstein.
What better way to explore Cambridge in the sunshine. Scudamore's offer student, loyalty and seasonal discounts too!
Tate Modern does weekend after-hours gallery-going extremely well, opening till 10pm on Fridays and Saturdays. Leer más.
My friend Amy says, "Admission is a bit steep (I think it's ~14 pounds), but it really was something special. Check out the Poet's Corner: Carroll, Spenser, Chaucer, Wilde, etc."
Columbia Road flower market is every Sunday morning on Columbia Road (duh) in Shoreditch. Get there early, before 8am for best deals/best photos. Also great place to check out galleries, curioso-store
Show up at Camden Town at 11am to start your own self-guided food tour. You can explore the neighborhood and its many narrow alleys, all while sampling ethnic eats and awesome basement coffee shops. Leer más.
Do visit this bustling food market where top London chefs come to buy their ingredients. If you don’t find it here, where will you? Open from Thursday to Saturday, but come early to avoid the crowds! Leer más.
My friend Amy says, "You might be able to observe a House of Commons debate in session. If you've ever seen it on CSPAN, the way they debate in England is highly entertaining."
A lovely autumn / late summer day trip. They have a tree-top walk and pagodas which is ace, but I also really appreciated the Sackler Crossing... a beautiful bridge designed by John Pawson.
Andrew says, "Walking across Waterloo Bridge at sunset on your way to a show at the national theater is a peak experience."
Andrew says, "Go see whatever's playing at the Donmar Warehouse. Oh it's Henry IV by an edgy director. I would club someone over the head to have tickets to this, even if they were standing tickets."
"Overhear British bankers in the morning, check out the sweet Lloyd's of London building."
Is this the same as BookArt Bookshop? "An art student peddling strange books. Weird hours, check before you go. Makes all the insufferable hipsters worthwhile."
"Brick and mortar British version of Pitchfork. Unsurprisingly, the one near Shoreditch is great."
"Museum of living rooms. Free. Near Shoreditch. It should be immediately obvious to you whether or not this is a good idea. Not hipster."
While the daily changing of the guards is a tourist magnet, this majestic palace is a London icon and home of the Queen. You know that she is in residence when the flag is flying above the palace!
A wonderful place for people watching on a sunny day or as a romantic meeting place at dusk, but look out for the pigeons. A visit to the National Gallery is also highly recommended.
...get the time off the largest four-faced chiming clock and the third-tallest free-standing clock tower in the world, which has been telling time since 1859.
Dishoom feels like a walk-in sepia photograph. It also serves terrific food, like a delicately flavored berry pulao, the tart Parsi-style biryani. More of London’s best food: http://tandl.me/XAVcNk
