The crown jewels, Buckingham Palace, Camden Market…in London, history collides with art, fashion, food, and good British ale. A perfect day is different for everyone: culture aficionados shouldn't miss the Tate Modern and the Royal Opera House. If you love fashion, Oxford Street has shopping galore. For foodies, cream tea at Harrod’s or crispy fish from a proper chippy offers classic London flavor. Music and book buffs will love seeing Abbey Road and the Sherlock Holmes Museum (at 221B Baker Street, of course).

A free to visit, national museum in the heart of central London. Originally a private collection, the artwork was bequeathed to the nation by Lady Wallace in 1897. This attraction features one of the world's best collections of French 18th-century pictures, porcelain and furniture, plus a fantastic array of 17th-century paintings.
This is a MUST SEE - conveniently located off Oxford Street, in the Wallace Collection you'll have the most delightful collection of art works, suits of armour, elegant writing desks, exquisite porcelain, and other magnificent heritage items. Arrive mid morning and you can spend a whole day there - time very well spent and you won;t be disappointed. It's a one-stop-shop of culture and heritage.

Sofra in St Christopher's Place is one of my favourite places to catch up with friends. The staff are always friendly and helpful, the food is delicious and the prices are extremely reasonable. It is very central but tucked away in a picturesque alley

St Marylebone Parish Church is a place of active and engaged Christian witness, set at the very heart of central London. With a history stretching back nearly 900 years, we seek to offer God worship that has long been renowned for musical and liturgical excellence and to serve the diverse community in which we are set.
Although there have been two previous churches on it near this site, the present occupant is in a High Regency style and dates from 1811-17. Designed by Thomas Hardwick it has entranced beneath columns both adjacent to Marylebone High Street and the main entrance in Marylebone Road. It has a steeple in three sections. It survived bombing in WWII apart from its windows shards from which were used in new designs when the church re-opened in 1949. Its interior is opulent and ornate with lush green furnishings and a large amount of marble directly in front of the altar. The pulpit lacked the customary eagle. I noticed that Sunday Eucharists feature complete mass settings, last Sunday Stravinsky's Mass which was originally scored for wind instruments and whose Sanctus features antiphonal exchanges between male choir and orchestra which resemble a noisy flatulence. Outside the main entrance today coffee was being served. A pleasant garden surrounds the rear entrance. There have been a number of exhibitions of contemporary art here.

A vibrant cultural crossing celebrating our area’s history and attractions. This crossing connecting Baker Street Station to South Marylebone Road is a great example of a community collaboration project with our ideas, funding from TfL and Westminster City Council and production from Sing London. With the design including work from the Wallace Collection, Madame Tussauds see it for yourself!
