6 Places to Visit in London if Money is an Issue 

London is known as one of the most expensive cities to live in. It holds from time to time, but not if you know where to look. There are enough free things to go by from galleries to landmarks, and from parts to markets. There are a ton of stuff that won’t cost you money, unlike the Harry Potter Tour (if you are a fan). One first thing to consider if you’re on a budget is hiring a car from Hire Brid, allowing you to travel efficiently without the stress of public transport.

Following, we will describe a few things that will give you the utmost “London Experience” without breaking your Bank.

1. The National Gallery

If you want to learn more about the Yodas and Crown Jewel of Trafalgar Square, then you must visit the British National Museum. You will find it behind the Fourth Plinth. It’s a haven for Art Lovers and has some of the most famous Paintings in the world. You won’t be charged a dime to see the works of Botticelli, Van Gogh, Vermeer, Caravaggio, and even Rembrandt.

2. Borough Market

If you want to get a good sense of how life is like for a Londoner, then you better checkup the Borough Market. You are unlikely to return empty-handed because there is too much here. It’s a hive of business that has some of the finest produces of London.

This is where the Londoners go for their grocery and other daily life items. The market is surrounding by Pubs, which make it an ideal spot for families or friends.

3. Science Museum 

If you are a geek, then you will love this place! This is a great place to get educated. The Science Museum is spread on Seven Floors. Every Exhibit there has something to teach you. This museum is the home to Apollo 10 Command Module and Flight Simulator. In-house Cinema shows scientific movies in 3D where you can indulge in the depths of space and get lost in outer space. This is also one of the best things to do in London with kids.

4. House of Parliament 

The tour will cost you, especially if you are going to Parliament. Debates in the Commons have public viewing galleries. You can queue up for a day to stay for as long as you want. Moreover, you can request tours for specific places. But be careful, the security is tight, and there is a long list of stuff you are barred from bringing in.

5. Hyde Park 

Hyde Park is the home to a few Princes and Duchess of History. There is an abundance of Green Space, and the park has its monuments. It has a rather stylish fountain, Free exhibits, and art installation. The park is only a short walk away from Serpentine Gallery and the Serpentine Lake.

So, if you wanted to get close to nature in London, just take a walk in the park.

6. Sky Garden 

Well, it’s not enchanting as the “Louvre,” but it has a stunning viewing gallery of London’s Skyline. It is a glass oasis at the top of Walkie Talk; this is the highest public garden in London that boasts a Panoramic view of the city. It’s so popular that you might want to book in advance.

If you are traveling to London on a budget, I recommend staying at a hostel since they are much more affordable than hotels.  Here is a list the the best hostels in London.
