London

About

Impossible to pigeonhole, London really does have something for everyone. There are of course the recognizable landmarks like the Big Ben, the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, and the gleaming Shard, but London’s culture runs much deeper. With ⅓ of the population foreign born, representing 270 nationalities, Europe’s largest is also one of the world’s most diverse. Foodies can revel in sampling every imaginable cuisine, while aesthetes are sure to lose themselves in the cities countless museums and galleries - the Victoria & Albert Museum is the world's largest museum of decorative arts and design, with over 2.27 million objects in its permanent collection. The massive metropolis also offers plenty of opportunities to escape the hustle and bustle, be it Hyde Park downtown, or the UNESCO-listed Kew Gardens farther afield.
