The West End is the
center of London, or what you might call 'downtown'.
Many of London's
famous theaters are located in the area.
For
more information on theater tickets, visit
London Theater Online for the latest and
greatest musicals, comedy and drama.
In
fact this area of London is W1 (West One) in the
City of Westminster. You’ll find the best of
London shopping here as well, from the big name
stores to fabulous niche shops selling almost
everything. It is truly a shopper's paradise and
a major hub of activity in the city.

Nearby is Liberty, a store built in the
Tudor fashion. Each department is housed
within its own room and the goods are
spectacular.
Liberty is especially famous for its printed
fabric, rich colors and silks.
We recommend walking around and exploring
the entire area as there is much to take in
around Britain's premier shopping area. |

You'll
love walking around the West End. Oxford Street,
Regent Street with its lovely curved buildings,
Bond Street (Old and New), and of course
Piccadilly - one of the world's busiest circles
and for lovers, the statue of Eros is always a
must see.

The
bus routes converge and suddenly there are endless red buses in all
direction.
The
crowds of shoppers are also endless. There are people as far as the eye can
see, crowding on all points of the compass since West End streets don’t run
North-South, East-West, but off in many directions, down alleys and side
streets, yet every one of them with their contingent of people packed onto
the narrow pavements, all looking for bargains or just people watching.
