Welcome to London, the capital of history, architecture and culture. So, how do you visit this city in a week? Discover your program for your 7 days in London with a lot of free activities<\/strong><\/a> to do (and paid too) !<\/p>\n

Day 1: the historic center of London<\/h2>\n

On this first day, take a stroll through the historic center, and discover the city’s landmarks.<\/p>\n

Start with Big Ben<\/strong> (Westminster, London SW1A 0AA, United Kingdom) and get a feel for what’s in store this week. The famous seven-meter-diameter clock, featured in numerous films and cartoons, is part of the Houses of Parliament<\/strong> and the magnificent Palace of Westminster<\/strong> (Westminster, London SW1A 0AA, UK), which is just a few steps away. This palace, which is also home to Westminster Abbey<\/strong> (20 Deans Yd, London SW1P 3PA, UK), famous for its tombs, is the crowning place of many of the country’s kings and queens, who have left their mark on England’s history. The architecture is incredible.<\/p>\n

A little further on, head for Buckingham<\/strong> (Westminster, London SW1A 1AA, UK), the famous royal palace. Home to London’s monarchs, in the late morning you can watch the changing of the Royal Guard, a parade as precise as a broom.<\/p>\n

Continue your walk to Trafalgar Square<\/strong> (Trafalgar Square, London WC2N 5DN, United Kingdom), the city’s most popular square with its four large black lion statues. From here, you can visit the National Gallery<\/strong> (Trafalgar Square, London WC2N 5DN, U.K.), with free admission to admire works by famous artists such as Leonardo da Vinci and the Master Van Gogh<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
