Λονδίνο: 5 Λόγοι για να βρεθείτε στο Λονδίνο!
Χτισμένο στις όχθες του Τάμεση, το βρετανικό κοινοβούλιο δεσπόζει στην αγγλική πρωτεύουσα. Αποτελεί σύμβολο του Βρετανικού κράτους εδώ και αιώνες και ένα από τα μεγαλύτερα σε επισκεψιμότητα κτίρια στον κόσμο.

The stretch of the Thames alongside the Houses of Parliament is the only restricted area of the river, due to obvious security concerns. River traffic must keep to the east bank.

Anyone who would die here is entitled to a state funeral, and it's forbidden. If they notice you looking a bit sick, they carry you out of the building immediately.

Ask the tour guides about the graffiti under the books in the House of Commons.

Walk down towards the next bridge in the south to take pictures. Way better than the Westminster bridge at the BigBen

Statue of Nelson Mandela in Parliament Square.

Try and get into one of the bars. The Sports Bar is our fave, with the look and feel of a real locals' pub.

Magnificent! Especially during the night!

The Houses of Parliament consist of the House of Commons and the House of Lords. Their debates can be visited for free and seen from the public galleries referred to as the Strangers Galleries.

If you die here it's convention you receive a state funeral. Make sure you have a doctor with you to declare it otherwise the guards will simply drag you outside and declare it thereCheap bastar....

Make sure you're correctly dressed when you visit as it is illegal to enter the Houses of Parliament when wearing a Suit of Armour. It is also illegal to die in here, so don't do that either. Have fun

This historic building is a must for anyone visiting London. The tour was brilliant and reasonably priced. The combination of imposing Gothic architecture and rich history make it one of my favourites

BYC, supported by the House of Commons, launched the Youth Select Committee here on 17th April 2012 - a new body which mirrors the UK Parliament Select Committee.

Superb tour of the whole building. Highly recommended!

Bribes are exchanged at the bar usually

Big Ben, Parliment, Westminster, 10 Downing, all close together!
Το London Eye είναι το καλύτερο μέρος για να απολαύσετε την θέα του Λονδίνου. Ιδανική ώρα για να ανεβείτε είναι μόλις δύει ο ήλιος και ανάβουν τα φώτα. Η τεράστια ρόδα που το φιλοξενεί, αν και αρχικά σκόπευε απλά να υποδεχθεί τη νέα χιλιετία, πλέον αποτελεί ορόσημο για ολόκληρη την πόλη. Κατά τη διάρκεια της βόλτας σας, μπορείτε να θαυμάσετε διάφορα αξιοθέατα της πόλης, καθώς και να βγάλετε τις πιο εντυπωσιακές φωτογραφίες.

The best place to sip champagne in one of the 32 capsules and watch the sun go down over London.

Much cheaper if you buy your tickets online, you can save the long queues also.

Currently the third tallest Ferris wheel in the world (the tallest when built in 1999, but now behind Singapore and Nanchang), it moves at 0.6mph, and you can see 25 miles from the top.

Go on the Eye - best view of London

The London Eye just turned (RED) for World AIDS Day. Join us in helping to deliver an AIDS Free Generation by 2015. - www.2015QUILT.com

The best view of London. From the London Eye!

Watch the 4D movie before getting on.

On a clear day the London Eye, the world's largest observation wheel, offers views as far as 25 miles away.

Go up The Monument near the Northern end of London Bridge - cheaper and better views.

Best view of London!

- - The London Eye is a giant 135-metre (443 ft) tall Ferris wheel situated on the banks of the River Thames. It is the tallest Ferris wheel in Europe, and the most popular in the World - -

The best bird's eye views of London! Book the tickets online in advance and try to choose a sunny day for your visit.

What better place for your final glass of summer Pimm's than aboard the London Eye? Be a tourist in your own town for the day and take an opportunity to admire the city's landmarks from above.

Depuis 2000, c'est le meilleur moyen d'admirez Londres du haut de ses 135 m. N'oubliez pas votre appareil photo.

Wajib naik mata London ni. Seluruh bandar leh skodeng hehe
Το Βρετανικό Μουσείο αποτελεί το παλαιότερο κρατικό μουσείο της Ευρώπης και ιδρύθηκε το 1753. Διαθέτει κομμάτια ιστορίας από όλο τον κόσμο, μεταξύ αυτών και η Ελλάδα. Βρίσκεται στην περιοχή Μπλουμζμπερι και η πιο βολική στάση μετρό για να το επισκεφτείτε είναι η Russell Square. Είναι ένα άρτιο αρχιτεκτονικά μουσείο και απαιτούνται αρκετές ώρες για να το δείτε, καθώς εκτείνεται σε πολύ μεγάλη επιφάνεια. Η είσοδος είναι δωρεάν για όλους τους επισκέπτες.

The British Museum began from the collection of naturalist Sir Hans Sloane which he left to the nation on his death in 1753. Now it houses 7 million objects including more than 100 Egyptian mummies.

Officially the country's most popular tourist attraction, the British Museum opened to the public in 1759 in Montagu House, which then occupied this site.

Visit the Parthenon Marbles and imagine how these would look under the bright Athens sunlight. It's time for the British Museum to allow the Marbles to be re-united at New Acropolis Museum of Athens.

no doubt, the biggest historical steal for the world ;)

There are at least 8 million objects within the museum! Come, see them all!

Good place to keep in mind if you're in Bloomsbury and need the toilet. Oh, it also has a few artefacts, we hear.

Listen to BBC Radio 4's series The History of the World in 100 Objects then go and visit them here!

Great Mummies

Check out the Assyrian relief carvings of the royal lion hunt

With some of the best exhibit and artworks in the world, the British Museum is appealing visually and stimulating for the mind. Within the museum, the Egyptian room and Rosetta Stone are a must-see.

see Greek exhibitions and Asian art

The British Museum has more than 7 million objects from every continent, some of which have been controversial.

The Egyptian Exhibition is amazing and they have outstanding exhibitions

Great place amazing collections. Pity that the glory of place comes from stolen items. Please return the marbles to Greece .

Challenge by my 12-year-old to all others: try and find a statue of a man without something cut off. Hand, nose, arm, etc :-)

There is a great room full of sarcophagi downstairs from the large Egyptian works.

Make sure you have a few spare hours if you plan on visiting the entire thing. Do not miss the mummies!
Σε ένα από τα πιο κεντρικά σημεία της πόλης, θα βρείτε την πλατεία Piccadilly. Η λέξη circus που συνοδεύει την πλατεία αναφέρεται στο κυκλικό σχήμα της. Καθημερινά αποτελεί σημείο συνάντησης εκατομμύρια ανθρώπων οι οποίοι έχουν την ευκαιρία να θαυμάσουν τις τεράστιες οθόνες ή να περιπλανηθούν σε κάποιο από τα όμορφα εστιατόρια ή καφέ της πλατείας.

The famous illuminated advertising of Piccadilly Circus began as early as 1893, before most of the city had electric street lighting.
There is NO fountain. Idiots, stop thinking there is one! It's simply the statue of Anteros.

Its amazing to watch people still go into the red telephone booth and act like they are talking on the phone just for a pic. Classic

London's famous West End theatre district. This theatre has been the home of one of Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber's most famous musicals for many years; The Phantom of the Opera.

UK version of Times Square, way cool!

Piccadilly Circus in colour - 1940s

The spot where Harry, Ron and Hermoine apparate in the 7th movie.

Meeting point in London !!

Saturday night is crazyy!! There's some street music where artists perform and you get to tip them.

Sadly to say - I don't believe in the myth of Eros, kissing and love will be eternal :-(

London's version of Times Square.

Sit down at the fountain and let crowds pass by.

It's so beautifully lit in the evenings with tourists to accommodate. I love it; "The Time Square of London."
Ο μεγαλύτερος κήπος σε κεντρική περιοχή της πόλης είναι τα βασιλικά πάρκα του Χάιντ Παρκ. Μπορείτε να απολαύσετε μια βαρκάδα στην πανέμορφη λίμνη ή να ξαπλώσετε στα γρασίδια όταν ο καιρός το επιτρέπει. Ετοιμαστείτε να αφιερώσετε αρκετό χρόνο, αφού το πάρκο είναι αρκετά μεγάλο και μην παραλείψετε να αναζητήσετε τα σπάνια πτηνά και τους όμορφους σκίουρους.

Check out the Kensington Gardens to see the statue of Queen Victoria, the only other British Monarch aside from Queen Elizabeth II to celebrate a Diamon Jubilee with a 63 year rein.

Hyde Park was a favourite venue for duellists in the 18th and 19th century, including the brutal 1712 duel between the Duke of Hamilton and Lord Mohun in which they hacked each other to death.

The first nude statue in London was erected in the South-East corner of Hyde Park in 1822. After the pleas from 'country women' a fig leaf was later added to save their blushes.

Go for a walk here whenever you can, it's stunning

At 1.5 miles long and about a mile wide, Hyde Park is one of the largest of London's Royal Parks. The Joy of Life fountain is a popular spot for splashing around in when the weather heats up.

Best time is on Sunday mornings in the speakers corner

In 2005, the four remaining members of Pink Floyd reunited for the first time in 24 years, at the Live 8 benefit in Hyde Park. With Richard Wright's death in 2008, it would be their only full reunion.

Cycling, Walking and sporting here is the best thing you will have ever!

Every year, 'Winter Wonderland' hits Hyde Park. Nice german markets, fairground rides & food! its a great atmosphere of mulled wine, german sausages on the spit, roasted chestnuts and gingerbread :)

Just one of London's great parks (we're so lucky!). Formal gardens, wild bits, horse riding, playgrounds, tennis, outdoor swimming, the Serpentine Gallery... you could easily spend a whole day here!
