London
Life is invigorating. That�s why people visit and then come back time and time again. The English writer Samuel Johnson famously said: "You find no man, at all intellectual, who is willing to leave London. No, Sir, when a man is tired of L ondon, he is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford." More than two centuries have passed since Johnson�s era, but even today reviewers agree that this two-millennia-old city remains one of the most exhilarating places on earth.
Here, what�s antiquated -- the Tower of London, built in 1078 -- clasps hands with the contemporary -- the Millennium Bridge, finished in 2000. The gray foggy climate settles in a city that still performs Shakespeare but with actors who don modern garb. Londoners most certainly still awe at Prince William and his new fianc�e, Kate, but they also rock out to Coldplay and Lily Allen. And while they still sip tea, they now drink Starbucks, too. A current-day leader in everything from politics and banking to fashion and music, London also keeps its history alive, and interested guests can still trace Jack the Ripper�s steps on an evening tour, or watch the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace.
