London was actually the first European city I ever visited when I was 14. I immediately fell in love with London, so I was so excited to return this summer! One of the things I love most about Europe is the history. Basically, every street in London is lined with stunning, historical architectures that are each so unique and detailed. There are so many sights in London, however, the main sights are conveniently close and within walking distance. There are many ways to get around London, such as cab, bike, bus, or tube (just to name a few), but walking around is so much better than quickly spinning around in a cab or bus to each destination. Personally, I feel more connected to the city when I walk on the streets amongst locals and tourists.
Each street in London has pubs, black cabs, union jack flags, and bustling crowds that cross between the traffic in the narrow roads. The buildings surrounding the sidewalks are multistoried, gray, and decorated with columns and other classic embellishments. London’s cloudy weather and cool-toned architecture makes the famous red buses and phone booths pop out in the streets. Each street in London is so unique and on each corner you turn there is a new restaurant or shop that catches your eye.
I am so happy to be back in this amazing city!
