Virtual London - The best place to see London online

No visit to London would be complete without a visit to the Food Hall of Harrods - recognised as the finest food hall in the world. It is claimed they are even able to obtain goods from the depths of the Amazon rainforests if ordered in advance! One word of warning: make sure you've eaten before you go or you may well end up exceeding your baggage allowance on the way home!

If it's fashion you like, your first stop should be Harvey Nichols. The grand store brims with every name known to the fashion world from small couturiers to huge, successful concerns.

Just off Knightsbridge you'll find Sloane Street, home to such famous names as Katherine Hamnett, Lalique, Louis Vuitton, Cartier, and Gianni Versace. Surrounding the streets of fine shops are quiet roads containing some of the most expensive real estate in the world. Handsome Georgian and Victorian houses provide homes for super wealthy aristocrats, filmstars and musicians while some even act as embassies and consulates. Despite a vast number of visitors to the main shopping areas, Knightsbridge remains one of the most exclusive areas of London.
