Best Zoo in Abbots Langley

"The oldest scientific zoo in the world, London Zoo is home for more than eight hundred species of animals, being by far the most diverse zoological garden in the United Kingdom. Sometimes referred to as Regent’s Zoo (because it is situated in Regent’s Park), London Zoo is a great day out for any family with a few kids. Besides the enormous range of animals and insects that can be seen in such areas as the Aquarium, the Penguin Pool, Gorilla Kingdom, Butterfly Paradise, Rainforest Life and Nightlife, the Reptile House, and so many others, London Zoo also attracts children to the area that is primarily dedicated to them: Animal Adventure."

"From the Tiger Territory, Gorilla Kingdom and Penguin Beach to the Butterfly Paradise and Fruit Bat Forest, the London Zoo – with 760 species across 36 acres – reigns supreme among the inner-city animal attractions. Better still, it’s set to get bigger. This spring, an epic 2,500sqm Land of the Lions enclosure opens with state-of-the-art facilities for a breeding group of endangered Asiatic lions."

"Located in Regent’s Park is ZSL London Zoo, the world’s oldest scientific zoo. It opened in 1828, the brainchild of Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, who was also the founder of Singapore. It’s one of the most popular things to do with kids in London, home to plenty of cool creatures."

"What: While seafood tends to make an appearance on the menu of most half-decent Indian restaurants, it’s rare to see an Indian restaurant where it’s the main focus of the menu. However, that’s exactly what Michelin-starred Marylebone restaurant Trishna is all about - spectacular seafood which comes expertly spiced. Go for fat tandoori mustard prawns, warming seafood biryani or the moreish brown crab with curry leaves, pepper and garlic.Where: 15-17 Blandford Street, W1U 3DG"

"The prize for the most surreal gallery experience in London goes to The Crypt Gallery, which operates from the hauntingly beautiful 200-year-old crypts beneath St Pancras Parish Church. The gallery specialises in exhibiting contemporary art, which creates a striking juxtaposition to the historic arching walls that encase visitors. Its exhibitions and events are so well-curated, you almost forget you’re walking beside 557 bodies, all of whom were buried there between 1822 and 1854."

"Unique in being one of the remaining independent and privately funded institutions of the arts in London, The Royal Academy of Arts has garnered a reputation as the venue for some of the most interesting art exhibitions that the country has ever seen. “The breadth of their show programme is so impressive, you can almost guarantee that at all times there will be a show on you have to see,” says Matthew. “We framed the Hockney exhibition there a few years ago,” recalls Matthew, who had a great deal of input into the frames used for some of Hockney’s vibrant and dreamlike landscapes inspired by the Yorkshire countryside."

"Britain’s oldest society devoted to fine arts was founded in 1768 and moved here to Burlington House a century later. For its 250th birthday in 2018, the RA gave itself a £56-million makeover, opening up 70% more public space. It also made it free to visit its historic collection, which includes drawings, paintings, architectural designs, photographs and sculptures by past and present Royal Academicians, such as Joshua Reynolds, John Constable, Thomas Gainsborough, JMW Turner, David Hockney and Norman Foster."

"The Royal Academy of Arts is the first art institution in England. It was established in 1768 and since 1868 it has been based in Burlington House on Piccadilly. In 1998 it expanded to the Burlington Gardens building."

"Marked by a yellow fish above an otherwise nondescript doorway on Portobello Road, time travel back into the groovy 70’s for an evening at Trailer Happiness’ subterranean tiki lounge, one of the best cocktail bars in London. Adorned with hula girl memorabilia and other emblems of retro Polynesian kitsch, don’t be fooled by the bartender’s Aloha shirt – the staff here are true mixologists and specialize on putting inventive twists on rum classics. They’re also known to perform a fire show at times, blowing alcohol to the ceiling and setting it aflame while everybody cheers."
