Attraction

One licensed market of 290 pitches, not a thousand stalls, trading a different part of the street on every day of the week and shut on bank holidays. The name, the Westway, the landmarks that are on neighbouring streets, the barriers, and the superlatives nobody official will make.

Westminster approved the Queen Elizabeth II National Memorial in April 2026, and it will replace the Blue Bridge and move Marlborough Gate. Where the park came from, the attribution to drop, the pelicans, the monuments, and the figures its own authorities disagree about.

The Science Museum's collections date from 1857 inside the South Kensington Museum and the institution from its formal separation on 26 June 1909. The building is not listed, despite frequent claims otherwise. Stephenson's Rocket left London in 2018 and is now at York, and the Exploring Space gallery closed in 2025.

The City of London is a separate local authority, ceremonial county and police force of about one square mile, run by the Corporation, with a business vote that accounts for two-thirds of its electorate. The London Museum opens at Smithfield on 28 November 2026, and the Barbican has two closures ahead of it.

What a Las Vegas casino is designed to do, why smoking on the gaming floor surprises British visitors, and the house edge game by game — which varies from half a per cent to over twenty-five.

928 nuclear tests between 1951 and 1992, sixty-five miles from the Strip, watched from the hotel roofs as a tourist attraction — and the fallout that went north over Utah.

The lion habitat closed in 2012 and the lions went to a ranch in Henderson — so the hotel's best-known free attraction has not existed for fourteen years. Also: there have been two MGM Grands, and the first one is now the Horseshoe.

Closed on 17 July 2024 and being rebuilt as a guitar-shaped Hard Rock for 2027 — but this is the building that invented the modern Las Vegas megaresort, and the volcano is why the Strip became a street people walk.
