City/town information
London may be huge, but you can walk around to most places. If you can’t walk there is the underground system which goes over 400km an easier way to get around the city. London is a 24/7 city; you will find shops open at every hour of the day seven days a week. There’s a reason London is such a tourist attraction and that’s because of the vibrant culture and nationalities and languages which makes it so popular, along with many attractions including big Ben London Eye and more.
