The spirit of London
London often gives the impression of being more comfortable with its past than its present. From the world-famous landmarks of St. Paul’s Cathedral, Buckingham Palace and the Tower of London to the traditional and well-loved double-decker buses, black cabs, the theatres and many grand hotels, England’s capital offers visitors a journey through the centuries of history.
Across the river from London Bridge is “The city of London”, the financial district of the capital. The city has its own historic delights such as the 15th century Guildhall and churches designed by Sir Christopher Wren. The best way to explore the City is on foot. For instance, you can “walk through the ages”, starting from Fournier Street and ending at the modern Lloyd’s building on Lime street. Remember, however, that in London you are never far away from the past: the old-fashioned red telephone boxes are becoming popular again and many London pubs have been restored to their original Victorian beauty.
But the capital is not a historical theme park. It is a lively and exciting metropolis which is well-known for its popular culture, music, clubs, street fashion and visual arts, luxurious hotels, highly-recommended restaurants, exclusive boutiques and department stores.
Much of London’s energy and originality is now centered in Soho, the city’s liveliest and most bohemian area, squeezed in between the department stores of Oxford Street and the bookshops of Charing Cross Road. Soho, once considered one of the dirtiest and most dangerous parts of London, was cleaned up in the early 1980’s. Today, with its gurgling cappuccino machines and pavement cafes, it has become a meeting place for all kinds of people from all over the world, whatever the hour of day or night.
So, even if you are new to the city, you don’t have to try hard in order to experience the real London. Despite its heavy traffic and shaking underground railway, it is still one of the world’s greatest and most cosmopolitan cities.
