Go beyond the ordinary with this beautifully illustrated travelogue and guidebook to find the real London.
Explore the authentic side of London, with a richly photographed, intoxicating mix of history and the cosmopolitan present day. Perfect for an adventurous traveler —where The Rough Guide crowd meets the Wallpaper audience—this book is for anyone yearning to be inspired and excited by travel, and who is hungry for the less obvious.
The Extraordinary Guide: London will take you on a local’s tour of this famously multicultural city. Beyond the iconic buildings, grand architecture, and famous museums, discover the village-like enclaves and quaint neighborhoods that make up many of the city’s postcodes. From West London—where rainbow-colored terraces and pretty, Instagrammable mews rub shoulders with Portobello Road’s vintage and antique markets—to East, where Shoreditch’s thriving art scene of street murals, galleries, and studios form an ever-changing backdrop to the food stalls and pop-up cafes that are home to some of the best international cuisine in the world.
There is a chapter for each of the key neighborhoods along with maps, walking itineraries, and lists of the essential pit stops along the way. Whether you’re planning a trip, have already been and want a keepsake to remember the city by, or are simply sitting at home longing to be somewhere else, this is the ideal book for you.
