The East End and Brick Lane are two of my fav's

Visiting London, by rusty1986 on Dec 6, 2007 18:20:34 GMT 1, hey bill when you headin?
me and the lady are visiting 18th to 20th...looking forward to it..
go see all the usual touristy stuff, the eyes good, parliament (we got a personal tour last time with a Lord that my parents know which was awesome), the palace and all the stuff that people go to london to do! it is pricey, but you know..prob afford to miss the dungeons tho, i wasnt that impressed to be honest, and we went at halloween last time!
thing im looking forward to most is the Tutenkahmun exhibit at the 02 dome...once in a lifetime oppurtunity and all that!
btw wat are the best galleries to check out? wanna see some banksys and would love to check out laz, do these galleries tend to be snobbish or would they mind two young uns having a little gander round?!
and where can one get that book?

Visiting London, by danvnuk on Dec 6, 2007 22:24:45 GMT 1, Me and the GF, despite working in London made a concious effort to do all the touristy stuff, so many people don't bother which I think is sad.
So, bearing that in mind - the best touristy things to do IMO (apart from the galleries)
Tower of London (spend hours in here) Imperial War Museum City of London Museum (fantastic museum this) Houses of Parliament tour And If your a Foodie - Borough market is a must.
