Home to the newest and most
exciting developments in business, design and the arts, London,
England is a truly stimulating,
cosmopolitan environment that puts an incredible wealth of
history and culture right on your doorstep. The theater district,
known as the West End, has long been considered the finest
in the world, boasting over fifty theaters offering top quality
and diverse productions. The West End is also home to Piccadilly
Circus, Leicester Square, Trafalgar Square with its imposing
Nelson's column, lions and fountains, and, of course, Changing
the Guard at Buckingham Palace; Westminster, the seat of power,
where you'll find The Houses of Parliament, Big Ben and the
Westminster's Abbey and Cathedral; and Whitehall, which is
the seat of Government.
Design students should also find
plenty of inspiration from other parts of London. For example,
the East End has a vibrant artistic scene, one of London's
hippest districts with contemporary bars, restaurants, shops
and markets. Knightsbridge and South Kensington in the west
are among London's most prestigious areas with elegant,
expensive houses, hotels, restaurants and shops: Harrods,
Harvey Nichols and the designer boutiques along Sloane Street.
Notting Hill in west London is famous for its annual August
carnival--a riot of color and rhythm--plus many new fashionable
bars, restaurants and the popular Portobello Road antique
shops and market. Soho is home to Carnaby Street--the 60's
center of fashion and a great cosmopolitan selection of
restaurants, bars, clubs and other nightlife.
Another plus is that with the high-speed
Channel Tunnel rail link, Paris and the treasures of Europe
are only a few hours away.
