England

London has dozens of museums which are both world famous and little known. Here is a selection of 25 of them.

When it comes to London department stores, its not so much a matter of ‘What to Buy’ as what can’t you buy. These massive, multi-story emporiums sell everything under the sun all under one roof.

Many of it’s parks and gardens were originally royal hunting grounds, stately homes, or contained within grand palaces or estates,   ,and were converted up to three centuries ago into public parklands accessible to all.

There are hundreds of markets throughout London and the culture of the market  is rich with the flavour of what London is all about- people, banter and atmosphere. Whilst most regions and boroughs have their own healthy share of markets, this is a list of markets big and small that best sum up the market culture or have the most to offer the shopper.
