    10 facts about London:
    1) 46% of London is green space.
    2) The London Underground is the first and oldest metro in the world. It first opened in 1863.
    3) You would need weeks to visit all the British pop and rock stars’ homes and famous movie locations.
    4) London has 67 Michelin star restaurants. There are actually more Indian restaurants in London than in Mumbai
    5) For 2022 the international Global Power Cities Index places London as the number one most influential and powerful city in the world, ahead of New York and Tokyo. If London was a country, its economy would be the 5th largest in Europe all by itself, behind Germany, France, Italy and Spain.
    6) Over 40% of Londoners are foreign born.
    7) London gets 20 million tourists a year, 5 million a year more than Paris and 7 million a year more than New York City.
    8) London’s West End theatre district has more theatres and shows than Broadway and it turns over more profit.
    9) each one of those new red buses (the ones with the rounded roof) cost as much as a Bugatti Veyron.
    10) The second biggest carnival in the world, after Rio, is London’s Notting Hill carnival.

      @@nk.medani Well, you did a great job. I’ve lived there on and off. I’ve lived in quite a few places: Paris, France; Barcelona, Spain; Athens, Greece; Alexandria, Virginia and Harare, Zimbabwe.
      In fact, my profile picture shows me hanging off Victoria Falls, the largest waterfall in the world in Zimbabwe (it was a bucket list thing)!
      But London always brought me back - it just has so many layers to it and such an energy- like NYC (which I love as well) except with beautiful architecture and over 2,000 years of history.
      I now live in a quaint town called St Albans. It’s an old Roman city, about half an hour’s train ride to London…I tried, but I could never sever the umbilical cord to London! 😁

    Next time you go , go in the summertime and you should definitely visit stork restaurant in Mayfair it’s food is pricey but amazing and visit the national gallery , the tate modern and walk around Hyde park and visit Camden market and also walk the Little Venice canals I’m sure you’ll love it 👌

      I’ve heard great things about London in the summer! I went at the tail end (end of August) so it was leaning toward fall weather already. I’ve heard of stork! I went to Tate modern. Definitely interested in Hyde park and more of Camden! So hard to get it all done in one trip - 1 week didn’t seem like enough time!! But there is always more to see in my next trip! How many times have you been there or do you live there?

      What? Either you didn’t watch the entire thing or jumped to conclusions. First off: I’m in a new country I’ve never been to and food is a huge part of any travel. Secondly, I went to and featured a plethora of spots for sightseeing. Your comment is ultimately misplaced & I don’t understand why you felt the need to judge.
