The City of London is both London’s financial core and a tourism paradise. Visit iconic landmarks, including St. Paul’s Cathedral, The Tower of London and Tower Bridge. Combine upmarket fashion with gourmet food at 14th-century Leadenhall Market.

Walk in the footsteps of politicians at the Houses of Parliament and gaze up at Big Ben in Westminster. See where British monarchs are crowned at 950-year-old Westminster Abbey.
