London is a common stop on most backpacking trips, European vacations, or two-week holidays.
Everyone wants to come to London! People are drawn to it by images of pubs, museums, history,
attractions, theater, and diverse culture. England is full of pageantry and tradition, and nowhere else is
that on display so vividly than in London. Yet the capital of the United Kingdom is hardly living in the
past, continually courting innovation and growth in its art, architecture, restaurants, and hotels. From
the burgeoning East End to the well-established City Centre, T+L’s London travel guide proves the
world-class destination continues to evolve.
How did a 2,000-year-old settlement with such a deeply entrenched history—and such familiar-to-thepoint-of-predictable iconography—come to stand at the leading edge of design, fashion, fine art, and
pop culture? By embracing international styles and influences (and people) as much as passionately as
its own. The city's millennial resurgence resulted from a blend of clear-eyed preservation, savvy
reinvention, and bold innovation.
