There's lots to see.and visit. Here's a brief list of the main attractions.
Palaces - Buckingham Palace, Kensington Palace, Hampton Court Palace. All of these are open to visitors.
Museums and Galleries - Natural History Museum, Science Museum, National Gallery, National Portrait Gallery, The Tate and Tate Modern, British Museum, Imperial War Museum.
Famous Buildings and Monuments etc - The Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, Whitehall and Downing Street, Clarence House, St James Palace, Tower of London, Trafalgar Square, Marble Arch, Monument, Tower Bridge, London Eye.
Churches - Westminster Abbey, St Paul's Cathedral, St Clement Dane, Temple Church, Saint Martin in the field.
There's such a lot to see I can't possibly list them all here. I'd recommend an Eyewitness Travel Guide as they're very comprehensive and include attractions, opening times, photos and maps.
Try the website for The Original London Walks as they do loads of guided tours around the city, They're very cheap and you can take Jack the Ripper, Harry Potter, The Da Vinci Code, Charles Dickens, Museum and Ghost walks. They are very good indeed and you get to see the places lots of tourists don't eve know about.
Travel by tube or bus, It's cheaper than by taxi and very convenient. You can get travel cards from your nearest tube station.
The main shopping streets are Oxford and Regent Street. You can try New Bond Street for Designer labels. Camden for alternative clothing. There's a big mall in Brent Cross also.
As for food, there are places to eat everywhere. China Town in Soho is good and Brick Lane for Indian Food in particular.
Have fun.

There are so many its not possible to get it into one answer. I would definately consider the London Pass if you are going to take in all the sights and attractions. It will save you alot of money rather than taking in attractions one by one, and no queueing!! The pass will cover attractions like Madame Tussaud, museums, galleries, Cutty Sark. Tower of London and alot more!
You can get good information on the London Pass and much more to do with London at http://www.londonvacationguide.com
Good Luck

fishermans warf, Angel Island, and Alcatraz are a even as-honored vacationer points of interest. I also imagine that the Marin Headlands, which has a collection of previous military bunkers, alongside with large perspectives of the bridge, bay, and ocean, is amazingly cool. also, their are alot of public wifi spots, and their going to characteristic extra, although that is purely no longer for decades. acceptable this second, the in ordinary words position i will imagine of that i understand has loose wifi is the Golden Gate Bridge Toll Plaza.
