London’s Fashion Town

On the following day, after an extended and great night’s rest in the holiday London vacation home we’ve rented, we’d a breakfast and decided to explore the New Town, which as we saw on the guide was located to the north direction from the Old Town and was in fact next to it.

Hilga explained we have a lot to find out in that section of the Scottish capital and I agreed. The very first monument to view was the Trafalgar Monument, which was made and set up for the memory of Trafalgar. From there we enjoyed nice views over the city and made some excellent photographs. The following place to visit was the National Gallery of Britain where we managed to view the best art collections in the country. There was no admission charge at all, that was good and the exact was valid for the Scottish National Portrait Gallery, that on the other hand we couldn’t go to because it was closed for repairs until November 2011.

Maria was starving, therefore we purchased hot dogs and had some rest at the Princes Street Gardens, that is a tiny but beautifully arranged park located between the Princes Street and the Castle Hills.

In the afternoon we climbed the Hill and after that we went shopping along the Main Street, the George Street and the Broughton Street.

As this day was totally dedicated on the New Town, in the evening hours we went out of our London arranged apartment and we went to a pub we have noticed during the day – The Living Room, where the food was excellent and the guests could enjoy not just the ale and the cocktails but additionally the show of the bartenders. Then we went to the Standing Order Pub and finished the night there.
