"Set out on a unique expedition with this refreshing alternative guide to the capital’s hidden corners." -BRITIAN Magazine
Explore the treasures of old London and the delights of the new with this explorer’s guidebook to the capital’s oddities and hidden gems. Roman ruins and sci-fi skyscrapers, eccentric museums and novel art spaces, ancient customs and living traditions. From Roman Londinium and Shakespeare’s Globe to Winston Churchill’s bunker and Banksy’s street art. Locations include the Necropolis Railway, Soho’s Buddhist temple, ghost stations on the Tube, and the best Eel and Pie shop. Also Cleopatra’s Needle, Jimi Hendrix’s apartment, Florence Nightingale’s lamp, and the philosopher’s mummy. The ideal city guide for travellers who want to escape the crowds and go beyond the well-known paths, as well as for those inhabitants who perhaps thought they already knew their city. Published by The Urban Explorer, these city tales from new and unusual perspectives are aimed at independent cultural travellers.
