London winter may seem quite chilly and windy but still it can offer bunch of entertainment that are of lower price comparing to summer time.
But before starting your greatest holiday ever be sure you are well packed as the weather can make you stay inside most of the time. A woolen coat will be perfect choice to feel comfy. Don’t forget about the scarf, gloves and a hat.
The best way to take all the advantages out of winter is an ability to enjoy it to the fullest.
Start loving London just before the Christmas Eve because it is just really fabulous time to be in London. Adore crispy mornings in royal parks, wander the Oxford and Regent shopping streets sparkling with Christmas lights and don’t lose the chance be involved in ice skating beneath 1000-year old walls of London Tower.
Among the sightseeing that are good to see during winter time I would call the following:
Winter Wonderland
Hyde Park as known as Winter Wonderland since November till January will offer you great variety of entertainment: Christmas market, giant Observational Wheel, fairground rides, Zippos circus, ice rink, different bars and cafes of Bavarian style, large restaurant and of course Santa’ grotto. Be sure to grab full wallet of money not to just go around and watch.
Ice skating rinks
If you found of ice skating – London is the best place to show all your skating skills on the rink. There are three main temporary winter rinks in London that you should not miss: Natural History Museum rink, the Tower of London rink and Somerset House rink.
