Best Route Tower to Picadilly Circus
by me015
What is the best route from the London Tower to Picadilly Circus?
Re: Best Route Tower to Picadilly Circus
by leics
Do you mean the Tower of London?
And do you mean on foot, or by public transport?
On foot, have a look at www.streetmap.co.uk It's 3+ miles.
By public transport, use:

Useful Tube map here (not a download):

Nearest Tube station to the Tower is Tower Hill on the Circle Line. Nearest Tube to Picadilly Circus is Picadilly Circus, on the Picadilly Line.

Take the tube to Embankment (Green or Yellow line); chanmge to the Brown line to Piccadilly Circus.
or
Take Bus #25; See: http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/gettingaround/maps/buses/
Involves some walking to Piccadilly Circus.

If it is the Tower of London you mean,then think about the number 15 bus.
I regularly use this.
Go to the top deck of the bus and enjoy going through a busy part of London.
Fleet street, pass St Pauls Cathedral and this bus normally stops at Trafalgar Square and from there a shortish walk to PIccadily.
For me it beats the hassle of the tube and you can see a lot more.
Your travel card covers the cost on a bus

I agree - get the number 15 bus. Alternatively, walk it. It's not as far as people think! Just cross Tower Bridge and walk along South Bank. There's loads to see along the way - Tate Modern, Millennium Bridge, St Paul's (on the other side of the river), markets (on weekends), London Eye, National Theatre). It's a gorgeous walk, even at this time of year.
Travel Tips for London
5 Things I Love About London
by psychocy
And now, 5 things I love about London, counting down to the absolute best. Your results may vary.
5) The London Underground AKA The Tube. The tube may be the coolest and most convenient form of travel known to mankind. You can zip all around London on the cheap all day long.
4) London Walks. If you've never been on a London Walk - GO. If you've already done one or two - you know what I'm talking about. It's a great way to absorb a ton of London for a ridiculously low cost.
3) Free Museums. There are free museums all over Britain, but the ones in London may be the best of the lot. They're absolutely free, won't cost you a penny, and there's no admission charge. That and there's a ton of incredible stuff inside. And did I mention that they're free?
2) Hyde Park. Relaxing in Hyde Park is a great break from the hustle bustle of the city. Sitting by the ponds feeding swans and pigeons is surprisingly enjoyable.
1) International Flavor. You can meet people from all over the world in London. All nationalities and all walks of life are represented there. I met backpacking Aussies as I did my laundry, shared a room with a Bolivian looking for work and a home in the city, and swapped political views with a Canadian and a Swede. And that was all in one day. There were moments of absolute peace in Hyde Park, as I sat each afternoon with a sandwich and a lemon Fanta, silently reviewing all the things I had seen or done throughout the day. The cell reception was great too, and I enjoyed talking with my wife back home and sharing my experiences. These peaceful moments of reflection make up some of most treasured memories of London.
I miss London, even though I don't generally like big cities. There was so much to see and do that you can't help but feel like you have to go back and catch some of the things you missed.
'The old river in its broad...
by barryg23
I wish I could write like Joseph Conrad...
'The old river in its broad reach rested unruffled at the decline of day, after ages of good service done to the race that peopled its banks, spread out in the tranquil dignity of a waterway leading to the uttermost ends of the earth. We looked at the venerable stream not in the vivid flush of a short fay that comes and departs forever, but in the august light of abiding memories....The tidal current runs to and fro in its unceasing service, crowded with memories of men and ships it had borne to the rest of home or to the battles of the sea. It had known and served all the men of whom the nation is proud....It had borne all the ships whose names are like jewels flashing in the night of time....Hunters for gold or pursuers of fame, they all had gone out on that stream, bearing the sword, and often the torch, messengers of the might within the land, bearers of a spark from the sacred fire. What greatness had not floated on the ebb of that river into the mystery of an unknown earth!'
Guards
by phil_uk_net
I find it amazing how these guys keep their cool at times. They have a job to do and they are, after all, regular people. As they stand on duty there are a procession of tourists that stand next to them for photos. On the day this photo was taken the guard was being harassed by a particularly idiotic Indian tourist who insisted on getting right in his face (literally) and asking him stupid questions. The guards, of course, are not allowed to respond.
London Zoo
by kris-t
London Zoo was the world's first scientific zoo. It was opened in 1828, and was originally intended to be used as a collection for scientific study, it was eventually made open to the public in 1847. Today it houses a collection of more than 650 different species of animals. The zoo is currently undergoing a massive renovation project aimed at replacing cages with enclosures which recreate the animals' natural environments, giving a better lifestyle to the animals, and a more realistic experience to visitors

by MrGQ
The ENglish might seem cold at first, but they usually get friendlier as they get to know you .. and have a few more beers! :)
You will also notice that most of the stores and restaurants close fairly early compared to some of the major cities here in the US that never sleep.
And on Sundays, it is like a deserted city!
