Studying Abroad In London....what to do?

ksuen21 · 09-23-2009, 05:25 PM

So I'm going to be in studying in London for about three months. I'll be living on baker street by the Marylebone station. Aside from the touristy attractions to see (Buckingham Palace, London Eye, Big Ben, etc.) what are some other good places to see and things to do? I'd figure I should go straight to the source to see what kinda things you guys are doing.

I've tried to get around to such places like Piccadilly Circus, Leicester Square, and just today, the Camdem area. All have been great.

Pubs and Club recommendations are all welcome too!

Cheers.

If you will be studying here you will have plenty of time to discover London. So many people who come here to study end up living here for years because it's such a great city

You'll make a bunch of friends and discover the great night life for one thing! You'll also be living in a really nice area, so that's a bonus. I wish I could live that close to Hyde Park!
