Houses of Parliament
Welcome to an exclusive and centrally located part of London. The area contains many of the capital’sfinest shops, art galleries, restaurants and hotels.Its residential streets are lined with elegant housesand stylish apartments.
Knightsbridge is probably best known for its flagshipshops, Harrods and Harvey Nichols, where every majorfashion designer is represented. Many designers alsohave their own stores on Sloane Street, while nearbyWalton Street and Beauchamp Place offer a selection of stylish boutiques. For household goods, Peter Joneson Sloane Square is a London institution.
Knightsbridge is bounded to the north by Hyde Park,famous for its Serpentine Lake, designed by CapabilityBrown, and offering 350 acres of green space for relaxation.Nearby, too, are some of London’s world-class museums:the Science Museum, the Natural History Museum andthe Victoria and Albert Museum.
To the east of Knightsbridge is Belgravia, part of theGrosvenor Estate owned by The Duke of Westminster,200 acres of one of London’s most prestigious areas.Magnificent stucco fronted houses surround desirablegarden squares such as Belgrave Square, Eaton Squareand Chester Square and supported by exclusive
retails streets like Elizabeth Street, Pimlico Road andMotcombe Street.
Formally a riverside village, Chelsea has something foreveryone. For the past six centuries it has been home todistinguished residents, including Henry VIII, who built asmall palace here, and his Chancellor, Sir Thomas More.Chelsea’s Kings Road, made famous in the SwingingSixties, is still renowned for its fashion shops and iswhere the punks once paraded their unique style. If yourtastes are more traditional, why not visit the ChelseaPhysic Garden, established in 1673 by the Society ofApothecaries, or take a stroll along Cheyne Walk, whichboasts some of London’s finest houses?
Westminster has been England’s political heart for over a thousand years. The Houses of Parliament, DowningStreet and other government offices are all to be found in this area. Westminster Abbey, located on ParliamentSquare, is the setting for royal marriages, coronations, statefunerals and the burial place of celebrated British figures.
Within the City of Westminster is Pimlico, primarily aresidential area with notable past residents such as SirWinston Churchill, Laura Ashley and Lawrence Olivier.Many of Pimlico and Belgravia's distinguished buildingswere designed by the builder/architect, Thomas Cubitt,whose statue is in Denbigh Street.
