5 Things to Do in London Before You Graduate

If not for the coronavirus and the social distancing measures, this week, I could be walking through Piccadilly Circus or shopping along Oxford Street.

But life is as it is, and I can only give you some advice on what you absolutely must do in London before graduation (after the lockdown, of course).

Visit Warner Bros. Studio Tour London – The Making of Harry Potter

Well, you might have taken the tour already, but now, when you are finally settled in London for a few years, you must visit Leavesden Studios again as it is the place where the magic happens and where you can go through the gestalt processes of your childhood and naturally complete them.

I mean, see the authentic sets, explore the secrets of the film series and feel the real magic behind the spellbinding visual effects.

Just a quick question – Did you know that Daniel Radcliffe, a.k.a. Harry Potter went through almost 70 wands over the years?

Stroll to Hyde Park

London is famous for its parks. However, Hyde Park is special, and you know why. And it is not because of the Serpentine lake or paddle-boating, or swans but because of the famous Speaker’s Corner, an open-air forum for the exchange of opinions or ideas and the home of free speech.

Some remarkable people, including Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, William Morris, and George Orwell, spoke there.

Even if you do not dare demonstrate your eloquence, acting, or other skills there, you must visit the place from time to time as history is made there, indeed.

Educate Yourself in Museums

London is a fantastic city when it comes to museums and galleries because many of them grant free entry.

By the way, the British Museum, which is one of the most popular in the city, was the first museum open to the public in the world.

See the Rosetta Stone and mummified remains there, or investigate scientific progress through the ages at the Science Museum.

For cultural history, go to the Victoria and Albert Museum, where dozens of art students make sketches of outstanding works.

Museums can be an asset when you need some valuable information and visual proof for your homework assignments, and for other tasks, you can refer to domyessay.com for support.

Become a Theatergoer

London was the city where William Shakespeare, the greatest playwright of all times, wrote his best plays, and it will not be an exaggeration to say that it is the capital of the world’s performing arts.

And, just imagine that you have several years to visit all the best theaters and enjoy some of the most wanted, provocative, or talked-about performances.

However, you’d better learn some tricks that will help you buy affordable tickets. It could be discounted tickets or even standing ones. The authenticity of your experience cannot be doubted anyway, can it?

Explore the Diversity of National Cuisines

London is multidimensional, and it offers food to each taste and budget. Depending on what you feel like trying, you go to a particular district for that kind of difference and variety.

If you want some international street food in combination with alternative culture (punk, goth, etc.) and unique artwork, choose Camden.

Feel like curry and spice, head to Brick Lane, the center of Bangladeshi culture and street art in London. Some really cool and trendy bars are located there in addition to sweet shops with original South Asian desserts.

If you have not decided as to what you prefer, Soho is the place to be, as Michelin starred restaurants and burger and pizza places meet there. They are accompanied by busy bars, hot nightlife, fetish, and fashion.

Moreover, sandwiched between Soho and Leicester Square (an entertainment hotspot since 1670) is Chinatown, a vibrant neighborhood filled with authentic restaurants and some secret bars.

Conclusion

If by a stroke of luck, you entered a London college, use your years there not only to learn how to spend all of your major events in pubs or to get your groove on in the best nightspots of the city that never sleeps.

London is also the most cosmopolitan and friendliest city in the world, so make some good international friends there and cherish that friendship through life.

As one of the most powerful cities on Earth, London will help you build your professional skills and develop your potential. It is an incredible place for networking and boosting your future career because you can both attend lectures and intern for leading companies in your field.

London can give you opportunities that very few cities can provide while at the same time it will enliven your cultural life, teach you some tolerance and ambition, and give you tips on how to cope with stress and live on a budget.
