With a long history of immigration and settlement, dating back to the time of the Romans, London is a melting pot of international cultures, with something for every visitor to enjoy, no matter where you are from. With culinary delights for food enthusiasts to detailed and fascinating museums (many of which have free entry), to beautiful architecture and fantastic theatre shows, you’ll soon run out of time to do everything there is during your stay in London.
