Synopsis

London is both traditional and trend-setting - the home of ceremonious pomp and pageantry and the "anything goes" aura of Soho. You can hang around the Tower of London or seek out the happening spots. Dine on fish and chips, try modern British cuisine, or take advantage of great ethnic restaurants, including Indian, French, Chinese, and more. Take in the historical sites or explore diverse neighborhoods. This guide gives you the latest scoop on: the hottest clubs and night life, the coolest shopping, and the thriving performing arts scene; attractions ranging from pubs to palaces to Parliament; incredible museums, including the British Museum with its antiquities, the Tate Modern, and the National Portrait Gallery with likenesses of famous Brits, including pop icons like Elton John; four itineraries to help you pack the most into your stay; and, five day trips to Bath, Stonehenge, Stratford-upon-Avon, and other attractions.Like every "For Dummies" travel guide, "London For Dummies, Fifth Edition" includes: down-to-earth trip-planning advice; what you shouldn't miss - and what you can skip; the best hotels and restaurants for every budget; and, lots of detailed maps.
