So, here are 6 things to do or things to do in London, hoping to be of a useful guideline for your next vacation.
Somerset House and the Courtauld Gallery
Small gallery with a lovely permanent exhibition of paintings and, although it is strangely overshadowed by many travel guides, in reality it is precisely here that major events such as London Fashion Week are organised.

After a day full of shopping, the colors and glitter are replaced by the smells of ethnic restaurants scattered everywhere. You will surely find something to your liking, including Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese, Japanese and Asian specialties.
A concert at the Barfly
For the lovers of rock and live music, the Barfly is definitely a must and especially for the opportunity for a decidedly alternative evening.
A picnic in London
Are you lucky enough to visit London during a typical spring day? You just have to prepare your basket, as it is the perfect time for a picnic. Whether it’s the big Hyde Park or even the green lawn of Primrose Hill, you will not be disappointed.
Poppies Fish and Chips
Poppies is definitely the best restaurant in London and among the many fast food that at present everyone recognizes as a fundamental culinary stage. Abundant and cheap dishes have made it a success. Among the various restaurants of the chain you find one in Camden town, an excellent solution for a stop between the market stalls in this neighborhood.
Royal Court
