This is a cosmopolitan mixture of the Third and First worlds, of chauffeurs and beggars, of the establishment, the avowedly working class and the avant-grade. Unlike comparable European cities, much of it looks unplanned and grubby, but that is part of its appeal. Visiting the city is like being let loose on a giant-sized Monoploy board clogged with traffic. Even though you probably won't know where the hell you are, at least the names will look reassuringly familiar. The city is so enormous, visitors will need to make maximum use of the underground train system: Unfortunately, this dislocates the city's geography and makes it hard to get your bearings

They don’t come any bigger than this – king of the hill, top of the heap. No other city is arrogant enough to dub itself capital of the world and no other city could carry it off. It is a densely packed mass of humanity- seven million of people in 309q miles (800sq km)- and all this living on top of one another makes the inhabitants s special kind of person. Although it’s hard to put a finger on what makes it buzz, it’s the city’s hyperactive rush that really draws people here. I a city that is so much a part of the global subconscious, its pretty hard to pick a few highlights - wherever you go you’ll feel like you’ve been there before. Bookshops, food, theatre, shopping, people: it doesn’t really matter what you do or where you go because the city itself is an in-your-face, exhilarating experience.
