London’s beauty really surprises you. It’s a city you can’t help visiting, really amazing! With thousands of touristic attractions, how can we access all of those places spending little money, once Londoner taxis are too expensive? Public transportation is super easy to use, another way of passing by the streets in an economic way is the bikes. There are a lot of places where you can get one and give it back in another place.

As the goal was visiting the city and knowing people and customs, nothing better than riding a bike around the streets, sightseeing and stopping to have some five o’clock tea, in one of the hundreds delicatessie’s, tasting a delicious filled croissant. Delicious!

The buses and the subways are integrated. It’s easy to know, by mobiles or paper maps, where the closest stop is, and it’s possible to buy a ticket and access both means of transportation in the same day. The bikes stay at stations in the parks, downtown, touristic attractions. You only have to use your credit card to pay a one-dollar fee and you can use the bike for 4 hours. At every place you access the bikes, it’s possible to give them back, visit it and pay again for it later. It’s very easy and also helps the health of your body. Really cool!

Seize the day at outdoor parks, have a picnic and have a good time meeting London! In downtown, there are a lot of parks, and each one has its own history. They are very close to each other. You tour will be charming. In the past, and still now, there were a lot of kings, queens, princes and princesses walking around them.

Battersea Park, for who enjoys flowers, will be wonderful, because it’s flowered in any moment of the year and has a vantage view of River Thames and bridges. And, at last, Regent’s Park, in order to outdoor sports, such as soccer, rugby, track and field, field hockey and rowing. It has a beautiful lake and over 400 types of roses in the garden, and it also has a zoo with non-snared animals, saved from mistreating of their former owners, survivors which live comfortably and carefully now.
