More about Whitehall

Greater London, England

Whitehall sits right in the heart of Westminster where the history books get a little too serious for our liking. You can escape the rigid atmosphere at the Household Cavalry Museum to see some very different kind of soldiering without needing a passport or a permit. It is quite the change of pace from watching parliament argue about nothing for hours on end. The area has plenty of other spots to wander to when you want to stretch your legs away from the main thoroughfares. Near Here keeps track of what is going on nearby so you do not have to waste time scrolling through a dozen different screens. We make sure the local scene stays interesting without forcing you to leave London behind.
