Many find the British accents - both highbrow and lowbrow - quite alluring. But some of the accents - Cockney, for example - and slang words take a bit of getting used to!

Its Pubs

   
Savoring a pint of ale (perhaps with a plate of fish and chips) is one of the most ‘British’ experiences you can have in London.

Its Diversity


Though extensive immigration led a conservative backlash that became a primary driver of the disastrous Brexit, the fact remains that one of modern London's greatest strengths is its melting pot of diversity, especially ethnically, with people from literally all over the planet - come experience their culture, their dining, their festivals, and more!
