Buckingham Palace, Tower Bridge, Big Ben, the London Eye, etc - these are some of the London’s main highlights, which you never want to miss on your trip to the UK capital.&nbsp;
<h2 style="text-align: center;">However, if you want to have a taste of the city’s off the beaten path, there is plenty of places to visit.</h2>

Each bedroom at The Ned features elements of design specific to the 1920's and 1930’s and includes vintage pieces, richly patterned furnishings and rainforest showers.&nbsp;
 
<h1 style="text-align: center;">Little Venice</h1>
I remember it was on a Friday afternoon when I decided to walk the entire towpath of Little Venice – this took me about one hour.&nbsp;
Throughout my journey, there was a lot to admire, including funky houseboats and London zoo.
I even boarded a boat trip to Camden.

<h1 style="text-align: center;">Neals Yard</h1>
Neals Yard is a small valley located just a stone’s throw away from the famous tube station, Covent Garden.
While the place seemed small, it kept me away from London’s busy environment.
I liked the snacks and the lunch, and I could take some perfect selfies on the courtyard’s beautiful wooden chairs.
With plenty of charming retailers around, I couldn’t resist buying some beauty products and organic cheese.

<h1 style="text-align: center;">The Painted Hall</h1>
What a beautiful work of art from James Thornhill (the painter)!
The painter used his hand on the entire hall, which, as I was reliably informed, covers well about 3,700 square feet.
What is even more amazing is how impressive the monument still looks after centuries of existence.
 
<h1 style="text-align: center;">Brick Lane</h1>
The exotic smells emanating from curry houses, coupled with Brick Lane’s rawness made me feel a completely different touch of London.&nbsp;
And I couldn’t help lingering – people queue here for salted beef bagels.&nbsp;
Brick Lane is home to Dark Sugars (London’s best chocolate shop), electric vintage shops, and some impressive street art.
 
<h1 style="text-align: center;">St. Dunstan-in-the-East</h1>
Established between 11th and 12th centuries, this medieval structure has a long history.
Part of it was destroyed during the World War II and has never been refurbished since then.
What remains is a peaceful, quiet oasis, sandwiched between London Bridge and the Tower of London.
