London, England travel: Big Ben, Parliament and eating ice cream while walking across Westminster Bridge. More than a day trip from Thornbury Castle, and certainly worth the travel!

Food, nightlife, and fashion in this London neighborhood. Getting There/Directions Tube: Piccadilly Circus You cannot visit London and not take a walk through Soho, near Piccadilly Circus and Oxford Street. To get to Soho you can take the tube to either Piccadilly Circus or Oxford Circus stations. Rickshaws are a fun or a bit costly way to explore the area but I just prefer walking. Chinatown, this arch actually marks the pedestrian zone at Jarod Street has also become the gateway to Chinatown. There are a number of pubs, bars and restaurants here. And there are also some fine dining for the epicure at this Coco Marco Pierre Whit, the French restaurants on Greek Street. For the vegetarians Mildreds on Lexington Street is a good option. Ronnie Scott's on First Street is the most popular jazz club here. For artistic ventinue there are a few private galleries here. The Soho might seem a little run down but it is transformed in to a cultural square during summer. This is where concerts and cultural events are held and it is just a great place to sit back and relax. I am Peter Halpin showing you London.
