2. London
Boasting royalty, a vibrant theater scene, fine dining and shopping, green parks, art galleries and museums, and most importantly, impressive history, the U.K.’s capital is truly a majestic city. If visiting, do take the double-decker bus over the Thames River and across Tower Bridge – that’s such a London-ey thing to do. Additionally, if spending time in one of the best Great Britain attractions, also try to visit Big Ben and maybe the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace. Yeah – London is all about clichés when it comes to first-timers. Take our word for it.
