From Leicester Square to Piccadilly Circus
The West End, the area just west of the original walled City of London, is Londons liveliest neighborhood. Its easy to get caught up in fantasies of jolly olde England, but the West End is where youll feel the pulse of the living, breathing London of today, from genteel shopping to raunchy red light districts, and everything in between. Theaters, pubs, restaurants, bookstores, ethnic food, markets, and boutiques attract rock stars, gay people, punks, tourists, and ladies and gentlemen stepping from black cabs for a night on the town.
Most of this books walks and tours focus on history, art, and museums. But this walk is about appreciating the London lifestyle: the entertainment energy at Leicester Square; the thriving popular hum of Covent Garden; the rock-and-roll history of Denmark Street; the bohemian, creative, hedonistic groove of Soho; the once-swingin, now corporate Carnaby Street; the bustling neon hub of Piccadilly Circus; and the distinctive shopping boulevards of Regent Street and Piccadilly Street.
The walk is divided into two parts. The first takes you through the colorful heart of this area (lively and a bit seedy), while the second partfor those who still have energy (and pounds) leftis more focused on swanky shopping (or window-shopping) zones.
(See map)
Length of This Walk: Allow three hours to lace together these highlights (or much more if you go beyond window-shopping).
Getting There: Take the Tube to the Leicester Square stop, which is actually a long block from the square itself. From the Tube, head for the square (either on Irving Street or on Cranbourn Street, depending on which exit you use) and stand near the tkts booth, where the walk begins.
When to Go: Take your pickshopping by day, or nightlife after dark. The many shops in this walk are generally open Mon-Sat 10:00-18:00 or 20:00, and Sun 12:00-18:00. If youd like to stop for afternoon tea at The Wolseley or Fortnum & Mason, plan on arriving between 15:30 and 18:30. Early evenings are ideal, since most shops stay open at least until 18:00 (and many later). After that, you join the bustle of people grabbing dinner or a show.
