When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life;" wrote Dr Johnson "for there is in London all that life can afford." This may well still be true today, as there is always something new to discover in this extraordinary city.
London may be viewed as a cluster of interconnected small towns that grew up together. The extensive downtown area is surrounded by numerous unique inner-city districts that provide excellent opportunities for just strolling around and soaking up the city atmosphere. One could easily spend an entire day like this in Greenwich or Hampstead.
Stewed steak or cross-kitchen?
With its overdone vegetables and general lack of imagination, traditional English cuisine is a well-worn joke in culinary circles. The fact is, however, that the gastronomic scene in the UK capital nowadays is as diverse as the city itself. It would be a safe bet to claim that every ethnic cuisine on Earth is represented in London. Wave upon wave of fashionable restaurants has swept through the city in recent years, and the range of gastronomic options is now quite spectacular. Even the traditional ploughman's lunch served in many pubs is often a good choice.
Museums everywhere
The choice of museums in London is extraordinarily diverse, which is at least partly the outcome of the status of this city over the centuries as a centre of international trade and the hub of the British Empire. As a change from the better-known attractions, the visitor is often well advised to choose one of the smaller, more specialised museums where the atmosphere is usually more relaxed. Such venues include the Design Museum, which specialises in designer and everyday articles, and the London Toy and Model Museum, where a bygone world of play opens up through the medium of teddy bears, tin soldiers and dolls' houses.
