There are several articles, brochures and other sources which talk endlessly about historic and cultural delights which allure travellers to London. But there are less of them who talk about the secret attractions in the city which can be explored by the visitor while staying at their hotels in London . Much to the awe but true, these landmarks are ideally located near the famous tube stations too in order to make it convenient for the visitors to reach them.

Chelsea Physic Garden
This sprawling garden which was formed as early as 1673 will give a leisurely stay with more than 5000 plants on view, resonating with soothing chirping of the birds around. Poised on the edge of River Thames, this is the place to enjoy the soothing curves of the nature in all its benevolence. The best time to visit this garden is from the months of April till October when the landscape is in its full glory. The effort of Worshipfull society of Apothecaries, who created the place, is visibly evident. Take a stretch nestled between the elongated trees.


The Cartoon Museum
Giving you bouts of hysteria, this is a lovely family charm. This exclusive place, one of its kinds will entertain your kids while illuminating them a lot. On the exhibit is a panorama of British cartoons and their evolution from the time when they originated in the 18 the century to the present age and times. You can track this museum at Little Russell Street in central London.

London Stone
Get enamoured by this mysterious London stone located on the lanes of Cannon Street. Folklores have it that this stone was a part of the altar in a place of worship created by Brutus of Toy. Housed in a pub, head downstairs to view the legendry stone. Placed behind a metal grill, it is said that London will last as long as the stone is kept safely.

Dennis Severs House
This is a time capsule which is opened up sometimes. Dennis Severs designed the house in such a way that the visitors can feel that the Huguenot weavers still inhabit the rooms. The entrance is through the frame of a painting which often fascinates the visitors.


Thus, there is a lot more to explore in London other than the usual and famous attractions especially for all those who are regular travellers to the city and have already been to all the renowned landmarks.
