Oxford Street Let’s visit London! London is an amazing city; there are a lot of things to do there and many places to stay in. But if you come with me I will show you Oxford Street and we will book into Royal National Hotel (I have been there before and It’s a good choice). First of all, we would take a mean of transport such as tube, bus, cab, etc. Oxford Street is relatively near from this hotel. I have chosen this place because I love shopping and in this road we can visit more than 300 shops. In fact, it’s the longest commercial street in the world, around 2000m. You can find products at any cost. Let’s take Marks & Spencer, HMV, H&M, Benetton, Zara, Bershka, Adidas, Topshop, Primark, Gap and Nike as examples. We would eat in any of these places KFC Kentucky Fried Chicken, subway, Starbucks Coffee, Eat, Pret a Manger, McDonalds, Cornish Bakehouse. Every Christmas, the street is decorated with festive lights. Each year a famous person opens the lighting. Some of the celebrities are Leona Lewis, Enrique Iglesias, Spice Girls, etc. So I recommend you to go at Christmas.
Greenwich Park Greenwich Park is a calm park with a lot of trees where you can walk, have a rest, etc First we are going to visit the observatory and the maritime museum. The access is free. To go there you have to take a bus and to pay we will use Oyster.

We have found some discos names and comedy club’s names like Ministry of sound (with two floors and house music), Madame Jo Jo’s (where there are performance and all type of music: hip hop, rock, disco…), Jongleours Comedy Club and Comedy Carnival.
