With Summer right around the corner, many people are preparing to go on holiday. The choices for great tourist sports are plentiful. For those looking to hit the beaches, Spain, Italy, Hawaii, Monaco, etc. are all great choices. Among the most popular tourist destinations, however, frequently you would see London, England. So what is it that makes London such a popular tourist attraction?
The city has a long and storied history, meaning, aficionados of history will want to see some of the more popular historic spots. The British Museum is a great place to learn about the country’s history, the Natural History Museum is another fabulous attraction for fans of the natural sciences, and the Tower of London is, perhaps next only to Big Ben and Buckingham Palace, the most recognizable building in the entire country.
But, London is not just a place to be enjoyed during the day. The city has a vibrant nightlife with a number of bars, nightclubs, and casinos where a group of friends can party all night long. These are just a few of London’s best nightlife spots.
