I had been just passing by London, now I got the chance to see and look around the beauty of this city. I think one day is not enough to look around the whole place. It's better before you go to London from abroad, you get a London pass or sightseeing London ticket with you to make your tour easier. And don't forget your camera better not to go alone otherwise you will miss to take photos of the landmark or nice views there.Enjoy your holiday!

I was lucky when I went there the weather was just lovely, and it wasn't as windy. I enjoyed it there and hope to spend more than a week next time it only takes me 3 hours to get there but still needs money to spend. So right now need to find out hard to save money, it takes a lot of time and hard work to find money but when spending it, it only takes a few minutes and then its gone. So it's better to spend it on pleasures sometimes like going to other places.LOL

Whoah! I have never been to London. And I will make sure that it will be among the 'must' places that I will visit soon when I will have the money to do so.. Haha! Happy touring!

Thanks my friend. I have never dreamt of going to London before but when the time came I got opportunities that just keep passing by through this amazing city, I think I should have to look around and see. I heard about people saying how beautiful and amazing it is, the feeling is different when you really can see the real place and you can feel that your feet are standing therein! It's different when you can just hear about it than actually seeing it with your eyes. Good Luck!

A lifetime is not long enough to see all that London has to offer.. Take one of the tour buses, they go round all the major tourist sites and you get a ticket valid for 24 hours which will allow to to get on and off the bus as many times as you want during that time.

Yes, I will try that next time. Because I was thought going there by car and have a tour might be an advantage but it's really not. We missed lots of spots that we should go, it's just were running out of time need to hurry to go back home because of the hectic schedules. I would love to go there more often, the historic buildings there are marvelous!

I've been to London several times, and I still have loads to see and do on my "bucket list." London is one of those cities for which a lifetime is truly not enough. I have been there often enough to feel comfortable with the Tube, with finding my way on my own in the central part of the city, and with retuning to much-loved places to enjoy that satisfying feeling of "oh yes, I remember this." London is a super city--though I have to grant that it's the English countryside that really holds my heart.

Wow, that's great! Until now, I can still be lost if I will have to go on my own. And wow I like the shopping centres there as well, eventhough I didn't buy anything. The most things that I were amazed to see how they built those big buildings on those 640 A.D year, without the materials that we use in the modern days. I would like to know how did they do it.

I was there some years ago with a group of online friends. I'd like to back one day when the weather is better, it was quite grey and dreary. But next time I'm going to London is for the Olympics so I don't think I'll bother queing for any touristy stuff then :-)
Better keep out of the way of main "tracks" of the Olympic audience. I'm going to Greenwhich so we hope taking a boat will be easier than the tube.

Yes, there is a lot to see and do in London and taking your camera is a very good idea. I recommend you see Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, Buckingham Palace, Downing Street (though it is gated and you can only just peer through to it), plus there are many museums, great shops and try to see a theatre show too in the West End.

I have been London 3 times. The first time I visited London I went there with my parents and my brother. The trip to London was a present from my parents, we visited many of the famous sights and I had a very good time. The second time I visited London I went there on a school trip. We also did a lot of sightseeing at that time. 3 years ago I went to London again and that time I was travelling with my ex-boyfriend and one of our friends. Even though I had been to London before, there were still plenty of things that I hadn't seen, and we had a really good time.

Yeah one day is definitely not enough. I think a week in London would let you see a good part of the city. I've been there for 3 days before, and still I was not contented with what I saw. I wish I could've stayed longer, I just love London.
