Streetwise London Map - Laminated City Center Street Map of London, England Streetwise London Map - Laminated City Center Street Map of London, England - Folding pocket size travel map with London Underground map including tube lines & stations

This map covers the following areas:
Main London City Map 1:20,000
London Underground Map - London Tube Map

London is one of the most popular, populated and accessible cites on earth. People love London. And why not? Londoners are charming and helpful, and their city operates on such a high dosage of civility that it could be considered an art form. London is an urban oasis where you can search out cutting edge design, cuisine, fashion, chic neighborhoods, or traditional culture.

When visiting London, be prepared to walk. Whether its basic window shopping, advanced people watching, or the rewarding task of locating restaurants and museums, London is urban roaming at its best. Days can be spent just visiting London's neighborhoods, each with its own character, atmosphere and unique offerings.

The STREETWISE® Map of London UK will enable you to go anywhere in central London. The detailed and indexed depiction of streets, tube stations, sites and hotels will enable you to spend more time making new urban discoveries than less time complaining about disorientation. Say you choose Mayfair, for its refined and cultured demeanor. Take an afternoon stroll wandering through Berkeley Square, Grovesnor Square and Green Park then finish with an espresso at Rochaux’s cafe. You’ll briefly feel exclusive. Wander the back alleys in Soho and you will never know what or who you’ll run across. The very trendy Covent Garden is dense with human interaction packed into a small area. Walk up to Bloomsbury with its literary heritage to be amazed by the vast holdings within the British Museum.

The original city of London is the square mile of the city center, now the financial center as well. Immerse yourself in history and architecture with its many fantastic buildings beginning with St Paul’s Cathedral on the western edge and ending at the Tower of London to the eastside. Hike over the Thames on the Tower Bridge to see the Design Museum and the HMS Belfast.

You are now on the South Bank dominated by Waterloo Station and its surrounding shopping and dining area. The London Eye will provide an interesting overhead perspective of greater London. Come back to earth and walk the Thames along Queen’s walk pedestrian path and you'll be rewarded upon finding Gabriel’s Wharf, the Tate Modern, the famous wobbly Millennium Bridge and Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre.

Walk South through Hyde Park and you encounter Knightsbridge. It is one of London’s most fashionable neighborhoods, the home of Harrod’s (the Vatican of department stores) and Beauchamp Place, one of London’s most fashionable shopping streets. If shopping is not on the agenda, there are museums like the Victoria & Albert, the Science Museum, and the Natural History Museum. South of Knightsbridge is Belgravia. This area has long been the aristocratic section of London, rivaling Mayfair in grandeur and tranquility.

Our London street map is fully indexed with streets, concert halls, hotels, museums and galleries, parks, points of interest, shopping areas and transportation terminals. A separate inset map of the London Underground, the Tube, is also included to facilitate your travel around the city.

Our pocket size map of London is laminated for durability and accordion folding for effortless use. The STREETWISE® London map is one of many detailed and easy-to-read city street maps designed and published by STREETWISE®. Buy your STREETWISE® London map today and you too can navigate London, England like a native. For a larger selection of our detailed travel maps simply type STREETWISE MAPS into the Amazon search bar.

Fodor's London 2012 (Full-color Travel Guide) Get inspired and plan your next trip with Fodor’s ebook travel guide to London.

Intelligent Planning: Discover all of the essential, up-to-date travel insights you expect in a Fodor’s guide, including Fodor’s Choice dining and lodging, top experiences and attractions, and detailed planning advice.

Easy Navigation for E-Readers: Whether you’re reading this ebook from start to finish or jumping from chapter to chapter as you develop your itinerary, Fodor’s makes it easy to find the information you need with a single touch. In addition to a traditional main table of contents for the ebook, each chapter opens with its own table of contents, making it easy to browse.

Full-Color Photos and Maps: It’s hard not to fall in love with London as you flip through a vivid full-color photo album. Explore the layout of the city and popular neighborhoods with easy-to-read full-color maps.

What’s Covered? Get to Know London: Royal legacies, captivating history, stellar shopping, iconic landmarks---London has it all. First time visitors should head to Westminster to experience Royal London. Visit the ancient Westminster Abbey, snap pictures at Buckingham Palace and the Houses of Parliament, play with the pigeons in Trafalgar Square, and visit stacks of art in the national galleries.

Head to Soho and Convent Garden for Theaterland, Chinatown, and Liecester Square (London’s answer to Times Square.) Head to London’s Wall Street to take in the beauty and history of St. Paul’s Cathedral and the grisly tales from the Tower of London. Walk across the sleek Millennium Bridge and behold the South Bank---a die-hard culture vulture's paradise---which is home to the Tate Modern, the Design Museum, Shakespeare’s Globe, and the London Eye.

Those looking for weekend markets should head to the East End to experience the spit-and-sawdust experience of Spitalfields, Petticoat Lane, Brick Lane, and Columbia Road’s much-loved flower market. And don’t forget Notting Hill and Bayswater. Head to Portobello Road to experience the countless antiques, brightly painted flats, and see-and-be-seen-in restaurants.

The heart of brainy London lies in Bloomsbury and legal London, home of the University of London, the Law Courts, and the incomparable British Museum. Visit Regent’s Park and Hampstead and get poetic inspiration from Keats House or walk the cozy streets filled with sidewalk cafés and delis. Want to keep on strolling? Follow the Thames upstream for an idyllic retreat from the city. Enjoy stately gardens and a beer near once-powerful palaces at Chiswick, Kew, Richmond, and Putney.

Travelers with big pockets (or just a desire for some prime window shopping) should head to St. James’s and Mayfair. Boutiques on King’s Road may have lost much of their ‘60s swagger but the nearby Science Museum and gargantuan Natural History Museums are must sees. For a slightly more affordable shopping alternative, head to High Street Kensington or flash your cash at Harrods and Harvey Nichols. The quaint Thames side streets of Greenwich make it excellent for rummaging for trendy antiques. History buffs or culture vultures, pub classics or trendy noshes, whatever your interests, your itinerary will be a voyage of discovery.

Note
:  This ebook edition is adapted from Fodor's London 2012 but differs in some content.  Additionally, the ebook edition includes photographs and maps that will appear on black-and-white devices but are optimized for devices that support full-color images.
