Visit London
See the pioneers of retailing and enjoy the creative experience of London, the design capital...
Home to some of the world’s leading retailers…. Selfridges, Harrods, Liberty, Urban Outfitters, The Conran Shop and Paul Smith to name but a few, London is the hub of all things retail, a capital bursting with creativity and design.
With it’s beautiful black cabs and red double deckers, London is the hub of lovable British stereotypes. As well as being home to the Queen, the city boasts a number of grand symbols of Britain. When visiting Pulse and the capital, be sure to check out the majestic Houses of Parliament at Westminster, Shakespeare’s historic Globe Theatre, the contours of Tower Bridge above the Thames, the impressive art of the Tate Modern and London’s renowned Borough Market.
Whilst these sights are a must on any tourist’s itinerary it’s often the small things which really makes London great: a pint and a plate of fish and chips by the Thames or a night out in the very trendy Soho or Shoreditch.
