See England's capital for shopping and shows
Celebrate New Year's Eve in style with Fireworks at The London Eye.London is arguably one of the world’s most popular and prestigious cities. At the heart of South East England, it has a huge multicultural population, which is evident from the many international restaurants and markets offered to its people.
A particularly spectacular annual event is the New Year’s Eve Fireworks at the London Eye, which is often also shown on television. It is well worth going to see and will bring your year to an amazing end. Flights to London from Edinburgh depart regularly, so there is no excuse not to go and visit this inspiring city.
Of course, many people come here just for the shopping experience, with the vast array of designer stores and individual clothing boutiques. The likes of Harrods and Liberty attract the rich, looking for something unique to purchase for themselves, as a gift or for their home. There are many markets selling antiques, arts and crafts, and food; if you are after a bargain, there is something to suit any taste or budget.
The capital’s nightlife is always very lively, with club nights and live music events taking place every evening. Some of the world’s top artists perform here on a regular basis, at venues such as The O2, Wembley Arena, and Hammersmith Apollo. You can even take a boat ride along the River Thames or travel to the top of the London Eye for breathtaking views over the area. Buckingham Palace is another popular tourist attraction and should not be missed.
