Ik vond het nagebouwde Shakespeare Globe theater ook wel leuk. Tate modern vond ik maar niks. Gewoon wat rondlopen op typische engelse lokaties vind ik al leuk, de brug over de Thames bij Tate Modern (zie je heel vaak op tv terug), St. Pauls
( ... )
Leicester Square is also definitely to be recommended - lots of cheap restaurants and the chinese quarter. There you will find the Broadway of London and if you're lucky you can get cheap tickets to one of the musicals/theater shows there. Dinner+theater/musical for practically no money at all.
By the British Natural History Museum, you also have the Science Museum (free) and the Victoria and Albert Museum (free) - both of which I can recommend.
If it's possible, take a gander at Kensington High Street Gardens. Get off at Kensington High Street Undergrond, walk to the main road and take a right. Walk to the end of the block (about 3-5 mins) and take a right. On the right hand side, you have a building entrance. Go in and ask if you can visit the gardens. (The garden is on the roof and it is wonderful). You have to sign in and out and you may not be able to go in because of a private party, but if you can see it - do.
I personally like the Tate (the old reaction hall usually has a huge installation), but it's not for everyone.
We've returned yesterday, so I'm afraid the recommendations were too late.
Still, we already had plenty of things to do & see in the six days that we were in London. So if this list, we only went to Hyde Park for a nice stroll.
De Globe staat ook op mijn must-see lijstje. Lijkt me gaaf om te zien.
Ik heb laatst nog een ervaring gehad met authentiek chinees eten; dat krijg je ervan als je bevriend bent met een Chinese. Alleen wat het wel zo pittig, dat ik voor een moment niet meer kon praten. Verder denk ik niet echt dat Pat en ik van te voren plannen waar we eten, dat zien we wel weer wanneer het etenstijd is.

I plan to visit a garden or park, but I hadn't decided yet which one to see. The roof garden does sound nice.
