5 common beliefs about London that are not true

Arabiaweather.com - Ismail Ghasimi - There are many destinations in the world that you should definitely visit, and the capital, London, is one of the most important of them , but many travelers have their own perceptions about London , some of which are not entirely correct, so what is it?

The price is exceptional

Most of those who live in other countries say that London is an expensive city, as the cost of living is very high, and therefore it will be difficult for tourists to cope with it easily. However, there are plenty of budget-friendly places to stay and many beautiful places to visit for free, such as the world's most important museums, St James' Park and strolling around the gates of Buckingham Palace.

The weather is annoying

It is true that the weather in England forces you to always carry an umbrella, and it is rare to find sunlight in London, as the weather is cloudy most of the time. However, the change of weather remains constant and it does not rain even when there are clouds over your head, and winter in London is a dream come true for tourists from much colder regions.

Unfriendly behavior

There is a misconception that the British are unfriendly especially in the capital, London, but although this seems relatively obvious but the locals are not so cold-hearted, the truth is that each country has its own culture.

London is enormous

Certainly it is a big city and you need a lot of time to travel through all the roads which are usually crowded with lots of pedestrians and cars. But still, if you have a few places you want to visit on your list, it would be wise to use the train as it is the easiest and fastest way to travel in London and you will see the ease of getting around London landmarks.

The accent is British

The accent in Britain is completely different compared to other dialects of those who speak English in different countries, and the British accent is something that the British sacrifice for, of course, but they also like to enjoy other accents, and they do not discourage you even if you cannot speak like them.
