It is impossible to walk around all of London in one go, but you can watch this episode and mark the main places that are interesting to you, and then purposefully create a route for your own walk around London. This episode is a tour of the western part of London: from the British Museum to Kensington Palace and from Abbey Road to Big Ben. Along the way, there will be a story about how the London Underground is connected with Baker Street, about the peculiarities of English banks, and about where Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland came from, and about arbitrariness in Kensington Gardens. I will tell you how to get out of closed parks at night and where Prince William, Kate Middleton and other princes live. What is Piccadilly Circus and why Eros is not Eros, and then about where English dandies dressed and how old warships can be used for this. And finally, the first part of Harry Potter's London: the road to Hogwarts. The continuation of the boy who lived and London stories - in the second part. Don't forget to subscribe!
