      Don't be taking _public transit_ (subway, bus, light rail) in rush hour, period. Lat that time be for the residents of London to get to and from work encumbered.

    I have been to London several times and have had to ask directions many times. Everyone I have ever asked for help, whether they were in jeans or a suit, were always extremely helpful and gave very detailed directions. I have yet to have anyone act like they were put out or bothered. As for Big Ben, that is what they call it on the tour buses.

    18 Things NOT To Do in London
    1. Go into a chicken shop and not say "Boss man"
    2. Don't go to Buckingham Palace. Unless you're moist
    3. Don't go on a bus that starts with "6--" Those are school buses mate
    4. Do not go to Hackney at night. I beg.
    5. Go to Westfield on a Saturday/ Sunday
    6. Call the Big Ben Elizabeth Tower
    7. Do not go to those English Sandwich shops/ Cafes. No one goes there.
    8. Talk loudly with your friends on the Bus and the banter you're having ain't funny.
    9. Don't go to Oxford Street with lots of money.
    10. Don't go to East Ham. Just don't
    11. Don't go talking with a posh British Accent. No one talks like that fam.
    12. Do not go to Jamaican shops for food. These times foods aren't even ready and the shops been open for 3 hours.
    13. Avoid Hackney if you're a foreigner
    14. Do not ignore #13 unless you wanna get finessed bares
    15. Do not go on a bus with your oyster not working / You don't know the directions - just move man

    @IndigoJo 8 лет назад +21

    OK, I live in London and several of these are inaccurate.
    1. You can wear your backpack on the Tube. Even after the bombings (which were more than 10 years ago) people still did.
    2. You can put your bag on the seat next to you and many people do. In fact, if there are seats available, it's rude to expect someone to move it.
    3. We do call the "Elizabeth Tower" Big Ben even though technically that name refers to the biggest bell, not the tower. It's not a big faux pas. In fact, I'd hazard a guess that most people don't know what the Elizabeth Tower is.
    4. The crowding on the Central Line is found on all Underground lines at rush hour. It's no better or worse than any other commuter rail line.
    5. St Paul's isn't a residential area. I suspect the only people who live near there are the bishop and one or two other churchmen. Apart from that it's all bank and insurance offices and has been for decades.
    6. You can get an Oyster card, yes, but you can also use any contactless credit/debit card and the fare cap still applies. (The Oyster Card is more anonymous, though, but there is still CCTV everywhere.)
    Where are you two from anyway?

      Matthew Smith I disagree, I also live in London and yes you can physically wear backpacks on tubes but it's bloody inconsiderate, especially when moving around in a crowded tube it knocks into everyone so it's etiquette in London to hold it by your feet so it's not in the way.
      Also, it is very rude to put your bags on the seat next to you unless the train or tube is literally empty

    1:12-This also applies to any other city in the world, particularly those cities whose public transit systems have smartcards like the Oyster and the Octopus (Hong Kong). In addition to that, please remember that many cities no longer use tickets or tokens, so you and any other family member [if you're taking your family with you] will have to get and use a smartcard (the Toronto Transit Commission, for example, does have one-use paper 'smart' tickets with a RFID chip inside them if you don't want to use the TTC's PRESTO smartcard, and small children ride free.)
    Another one to add about using the Tube or any other subway system when sightseeing; _don't travel during rush hour_ ; let that time be for the people travelling to work. Start using public transit to sightsee after rush hour.

    19 - For everyone's sanity, if you're meeting someone at London Victoria train station, don't agree to meet at:
    WHSmith - there are three of them, and from two you can see a different Cafe Nero, everyone will be confused. For some reason this is the main one everyone agrees to meet at and when you have a large group it's hell trying to get everyone to meet at the right one or work out where the others are over the phone.
    Cafe Nero, there were two small ones but recently a third small one has also been put up. The first two are pretty close together but the third could throw in all kinds of "where are you, I can't see you anywhere" issues
    Burger King, there are two and you can't see the other from either of them.
    Starbucks, originally there was just one close to the outside, but recently a second one has appeared. Again, you can't see the other from either one.
    M&S, I've been told there are apparently two but I've only seen one so I assume the second is in an entirely different part of the station.
    There might be more but so far the safe places to meet are: Leon, Sloe Bar, Paperchase, Cafe Ritazza, Lush, Pret, Whistlestop, Wetherspoon and possibly McDonalds.

    It's o.k to ask for directions but don't expect that people will necessarily know the answer. Don't take any tube line during " rush hour" unless you can't avoid it. Rush hour lasts for more than an hour. About 5-7 p.m in the evening is very busy. About 8-9.30 in the morning is also very busy. Your chance of getting a seat in the "rush hour" is negligible and you will be tightly crowded in with all the standing passengers.

    The US businessman who bought London Bridge knew exactly what he was buying. The bridge was unsuitable for the modern volume of traffic and it was sold to partially fund it's replacement. The businessman came here to inspect it himself and diverted a river on his ranch to show the bridge off in the best location. It was just a rumour that "the Americans" (as if it was the nation as a whole) thought they were buying Tower Bridge.
