Do you love to be where the action is, and experience the hustle and bustle of a city? If so, I have just the walk for you. Covent Garden is London's best spot for people watching, street performers, and market browsing. The surrounding streets contain some of London's best-known theatres, and the actors' church - a who's who of theatre and film are commemorated here. But Covent Garden was not always so. Let me guide you through its streets and alleyways, peeling back the layers of its chequered history, pointing out a hidden courtyard here, a historic pub there, a pocket park beyond. We'll break for coffee, then head down to the Strand for a peep at the world-famous Savoy hotel, before ending up at London's newest pedestrianised street in front of Somerset House, home of the Courtauld Institute of Art. I'm looking forward to it already!
• Bow Street Magistrates Court - home of the first London police force • Royal Opera House - needs no introduction • Theatre Royal Drury Lane - the world's most haunted theatre! • Covent Garden Piazza - the hub of the area • St Pauls Church - thespians' church • Neal's Yard - cute yard: an Instagram favourite • Seven Dials - chic shopping in former 'rookery' • St Giles in the Fields - Palladian-style church with a history • Alleyways and courtyards with character, and pubs of course • Strand - still a major road linking the City of London and City of Westminster • Savoy - a classic hotel. Remember to drive on the right on the way in! • Somerset House - home of the Courtauld - art and history in one place • Finish in front of St Mary le Strand church in London's newest pedestrian space.
