The West End is one of London's most fashionable and energetic neighborhoods. It is characterized by the neon-glowing billboards of Piccadilly Circus, one of the most photographed sights in the city.
The iconic Trafalgar Square frequently hosts outdoor events, while the National Gallery and National Portrait Gallery lay on culture daily. Shopping is a favorite West End pastime, particularly on Oxford Street, Regent Street and Bond Street.
The West End is London's main theatrical district, with the most popular shows running for decades. The bars and restaurants along Carnaby Street hum with theatergoers enjoying pre-show drinks. Packed pubs and cafes are another West End feature that's hard to miss.
Other revelers head to the exuberant Chinatown for a meal, before taking in a movie or comedy showcase around Leicester Square.
