Vibrant, bustling London: one of the world's greatest cities
On the banks of the River Thames, London is a city which bursts with life and with fresh experiences for the visitor. The capital's many museums and art galleries contain unmissable masterpieces, while its famous shops, verdant parks and varied nightlife cater for every taste.
London's finest
London is warm in the summer months of July and August, which are the most popular times to visit. Those wanting to avoid the largest crowds may choose to travel in May or September when the weather is mild. Winters are wet, but snow and ice are rare. London has festivals all year round, with the Notting Hill Carnival attracting up to a million people at the end of August (bank holiday). Chinese New Year is celebrated in great style in February and those seeking a real British tradition may want to see the famous Oxford versus Cambridge Boat Race in April; the London Marathon is also held in spring. Each New Year is celebrated with a huge fireworks display on the Thames.
