Destination: London Hotels
London is the largest city in Europe spreading over more than 618 square miles from its core on the River Thames. With over 9 million and as many as 20 million visitors a year, it ranks as one of the busiest. The nation's financial and publishing center, this capital city is grand, stimulating, and beautiful, and most cities in the world seem provincial by comparison. It can also be dreary, cold, and dirty. But it offers the visitor innumerable outstanding museums and galleries, imposing palaces and monuments, quaint squares and peaceful green parks, excellent stores, brilliant theater, and exciting nightlife. London is exhilarating and irresistible. Unlike cities in warmer climates, most activity in London takes place indoors. The life of the city is played out in its theaters, clubs, bookstores, music halls, and pubs. More so than in Rome, Athens, Canton, or Delhi, you need to pay admission to enjoy the scene, but few cities give so much for your money.
