A visit to London can be tempted at any time of year, but spring is the best time to head for this popular city.
Although seeing the bright lights of the Christmas decorations in winter is an amazed experience, walking
through crowds of shoppers in the cold gets exhausting after a while. In spring, it becomes easier to get
around, and after a day’s sightseeing, you won’t feel as if you’ve got trekking uphill. London’s many parks are at their best at this time of year if you fancy a relaxed walk away from the noise of the traffic. Visitors are often surprising by the size of London’s parks and how central they are, but they are never disappointed by them. If you’re lucky, you may even see a play or a concert in the park, as there’s usually some cultural event going without.
