What is London’ s West End? [originaltext] Welcome to London this December! T

Welcome to London this December! There’ s plenty going on this month. For example, on 1 December, London’ s West End, the capital’ s best shopping district, has its largest ever traffic-free day. More than a million visitors are expected to shop and enjoy various activities while Oxford Street and Regent Street are completely closed to cars and buses. Shoppers will be able to move around the streets, visiting our famous department stores, and having a bite at one of the many cafes and restaurants in the area. Trafalgar Square’s Christmas tree, a gift to London from Norway, will be lit at 6 p. m. on 6 December to the sounds of traditional Christmas songs. Then, every evening from 10 December until 23 December, 5 p. m. to 9 p. m., people will sing Christmas songs in this beautiful setting. Lastly, ring in the New Year with the capital’ s largest fireworks show. Although the fireworks will be set off at the British Airways London Eye, they can be enjoyed from across London and will also be broadcast on television at the same time. Then, just a few hours later, come out and see London’ s colorful New Year’s Day parade, when marching performers from around the world pass through the capital’s streets. Enjoy your time in our city.
