Londra è uno dei posti più affascinanti del mondo. Non solo ci sono musei, gallerie, monumenti, chiese, edifici famosi, ma un’attrazione importante è rappresentata anche da discoteche, sale concerti, musical, teatri e naturalmente negozi. Ci sono 2000 anni di storia, residenze di scrittori e musicisti famosi e tutto ciò che potete desiderare.

Sorprendentemente, la maggior parte delle cose è completamente gratis.
