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.

North sea coast (close to Columbus and Kearny) is the position the monetary district, Chinatown, Italian section, and Wharf come mutually. that's a strong position to get some nutrition at touristy yet a lot less touristy places than Fisherman's wharf. you could sit down outside and not in any respect be mobbed. do not eat at Fisherman's wharf. that is undesirable. S.F. has some useful eating places. good seafood eating position: goto Aqua or Farallon. Farallon will be extra acceptable environment. both are expensive. you may want to favor reservations if on a weekend (reserve besides). not dressy, because that is California. buying - fifth street and market (San Francisco center) in case you want Nordstrom's and such. street buying radiates from that factor up by skill of Union. buying that is non-classic and probably extra relaxing (boutiques) will be Haight-Ashbury district. Goto Haight & Ashbury intersection and persist along with your nostril. Golden gate park is helpful. nicely worth a seem. roller blading (closed to site visitors) on Sunday. See the Golden gate bridge. to work out a movie, goto Sony Metreon. different cautioned relaxing - Castro.

Public transport is great (train), but London is also very walkable. Depending on what you're into, I'd recommend visiting the Tower of London and Tower Bridge. I also enjoyed St. James Park (many ducks, geese and giant pelicans).

Have fun!

Go drink tea in Baker Street - Sherlock Holmes. After that a tour in the Madame Tussaud cabinet and then a stroll in Regent's Park before watching a musical.
