Almost everybody knows Big Ben, the British Museum, Buckingham Palace, & the Tower Bridge. But the secret London which shapes the flair of the capital of the British Empire more than anything else is getting harder & harder to find. 

This guide elucidates unknown aspects of well-known places, but also explores the London unknown to foreigners and, in part, to natives, & its unique stories. 

Such as bars with noble origins going back for centuries; listed concrete fortresses; 300 year-old wine shops & synagogues; mosques and Buddhist temples; a tree planted in 1802, the lowest mighty branches of which are no higher than your head; a medieval cemetery for pariahs; a street lantern which has been lit for more than 100 years; the monument to 10,000 Jewish children saved from the Nazis, & one for the Great Fire of 1666; the police den on Trafalgar Square; legal & illegal street art; a crypt in which skulls & bones are arranged in a checkerboard pattern; or the secluded place where Paul McCartney concealed his firm. 

Unknown London from the Middle Ages until today - brand new.
