An Introduction to a Vibrant City


London is the capital of the United Kingdom. Located on the River Thames, it is a leading global city with strengths in arts, commerce, education, entertainment, fashion, finance, research and development, and tourism. Although the city is famous for its overcrowding and expensive public transport system, spend just a few days in London and it is easy to see that it is an exciting, fast-changing, surprising and fascinating place to be.

Some tourist highlights:
 * The London Eye (for the best views)
 * Shakespeare’s Globe (a re-created open-air theatre)
 * Hyde Park (for an impromptu picnic)
 * Portobello Road (for great market stalls)
