Overview
London - undoubtedly one of
the greatest cities in the world. Its name stands for history and might. Its opportunities
for entertainment by day as well as after nightfall go on and on and on. It's a
metropolis that
exhilarates and intimidates at the same time. Watch a musical in the
West End, go shopping at Harrods's or go for a relaxing stroll in Hyde
Park. London has something for everyone. And going to London once is not
enough. You can always come back and explore something that you haven't
seen before. And if you get home-sick, there are lots of Thai
Restaurants around serving you Som Tum or Khapao Gai. Just in case Fish
and Chips aren't your cup of tea.
