LONDON, UK

London is a sprawling city located at the heart of it all: arts, history, culture and much more. However, its distinctive neighborhoods are the most important thing that distinguishes it from other major hub cities, as each one has its own character. Enjoy a family afternoon in Kensington: it has museums, parks and plenty of other activities that kids will love. Or check out upscale Shoreditch, which has great shops and dazzling street murals (perfect for photos), then head to Soho, where you can enjoy a good drink in a pub or party until dawn in a club. Food is a big plus here: the city is full of fish and chip restaurants, and there are also upscale restaurants serving distinctive South Asian dishes thanks to London's thriving Bangladeshi community (take your pick from the many, many restaurants that dot Brick Lane). In addition to a growing list of restaurants run by celebrity chefs in the upscale district of Mayfair.
