Central London requires little introduction to most travelers, although deciding what to do and where to go in a limited amount of time is often a challenge.

London is a very visitor friendly place and traveling around in London is very suitably provided by various forms of transportation. The most common cheep mode of transport is the London Underground http://tube.tfl.gov.uk and it operates through out the day [from early morning to late night]. Other forms include buses, taxis etc. The whole city is divided into 6 zones with zone 1 and 2 referred as ‘Central London’.

With London’s endless choice of theaters, sports and music venues, you won’t be short of entertainment. This is the place to be if you’re looking for world-class art, exhibitions, music and more. More unbiased information can be found at Visit London http://www.visitlondon.com/.

Accommodation in London offers a variety of choices from budget low room rate [starting from £30] and to high-class luxury rooms [greater than £1000]. The best hotel which I have stayed in is The Ritz http://www.theritzlondon.com and the best priced [in terms of location, service and price] is Regent Palace http://www.regentpalacehotel.co.uk/. More information on the choice of the hotels, price comparison, amenities information, photographs of rooms, online booking can be done at London Hotels http://www.2pl.com/London/bs-1250300001.htm.

Finding a place to eat in London is a difficult task not because of scarcity of restaurants but because of such a wide variety and number of places. Chinese, Indian and Italian are the most popular cuisines in London. London Eating http://www.london-eating.co.uk/ provides the easiest way to identify the closest restaurants of the choice of your cuisine. But London is an expensive place in an expensive country. So mind your wallet when going out for dinner. A rough guideline: £5 per person: Sandwich Shop, £10-20 per person: Pub, £15-30 per person: cheap to medium class restaurant, £50-100 per person: very nice restaurant, £100 and above: Savoy or Ritz.

For theater loving people London offers unmatched opportunities of musicals, plays, comedies. The main theaters are located in Central London and all the information/bookings can be done in Leicester Square area. Online information and booking of theater tickets can be done here http://www.londontheatredirect.com/.

While sites like Fodor’s Online Guide to London can help visitors prioritize their sightseeing lists, we highly recommend taking advantage of one of the many great walking tours hosted by The Original London Walks. Or, if you prefer to ride in comfort, buy a ticket for a sightseeing tour with The Big Bus Company.

Melrose House is also quite close to Kent - known for very good reason as The Garden of England. In addition to an abundance of bucolic English villages, Kent is also the home of a great many well-known historic locales, such as the Port of Dover, Canterbury and its famous cathedral, and Leeds Castle.

Some famous historical residents of Kent include Henry VIII’s second wife, Anne Boleyn, whose childhood home, Hever Castle, is beautifully restored and open to visitors, and Winston Churchill, whose former home, Chartwell, is also open to the public.

Nearby Rochester offers visitors a wide variety of attractions - from 12th century Rochester Castle to a Victorian High Street filled with vintage book shops, jewellery stores, craft boutiques and souvenir shops - something for everyone.

And the list goes on and on. For more about what to do and see in Kent, visit the Kent Tourism Site.
