A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Millions of visitors are drawn to London for its fascinating history, but traditional images of Beefeaters at the Tower and the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace are increasingly being joined by the likes of Bangla festivals in Brick Lane and Chinese New Year celebrations on Trafalgar Square.

Indeed, the city is constantly moving forward by inventively reinterpreting its past. Summer 2006 saw the Pet Shop Boys performing in the grounds where queens lost their heads, while Somerset House continues to alternate between hosting trance concerts and ice skating, depending on the season. And one of the city's most-visited museums, Tate Modern, undergoes a complete transformation, as its permanent collection is rehung to focus on key artworks.

As publisher of the capital's definitive cultural listings magazine, Time Out is uniquely positioned to monitor its changes.

Biographie de l'auteur

Founded in 1968, Time Out has grown from humble beginnings into the leading resource for anyone wanting to know what’s happening in the world’s greatest cities. Alongside our influential weeklies in London, New York, Chicago and Dubai, we publish more than 20 magazines in cities as varied as Beijing and Beirut; a range of travel books, with City Guides now joined by pocket-sized Shortlist series; and an information-packed website. The company remains proudly independent, still owned by Tony Elliott four decades after he launched Time Out London. Written by local experts, and illustrated with original photography, our books also retain their independence. No business has been featured because it has advertised, and all restaurants and bars are visited and reviewed anonymously.
