15 Things You Didn't Know About London

[@SamanthaBacini]

Here's what I've learned about london, you can walk over the most expensive street and wear the most expensive perfume, get a massage with an expensive view, eat at the most expensive restaurant, and then sleep at the most expensive suite... in other words I'm too poor for London

[@hammalamiri12]

You can also walk free in Hyde Park , Hire a cycle for 2 pounds , have great affordable Indian food and drink with locals in a historic pub :)

Born and raised in London, lived here my whole life and still here. Never been able to afford even a trip to the cinema.

[@yonathanasefaw9001]

Really? How much is a ticket to the cinema?

[@michaelhawkins7389]

@@yonathanasefaw9001 it's not that expensive to be honest . depends on how many times you would go and which brand of Cinema you go to,. if this person, can't afford to just see one movie at Any cinema in London he must be trolling or is very poor

London isn't as expensive as people make out

[@lorddaver1935]

Happy Llama And just how do you come to that happy conclusion, Happy? Just how is it not "as expensive as people make out"? Do you have some magic formula for avoiding accommodation costs? And as for food, I mean, sure you could eat at McDonalds or KFC every day, but do you think people would travel from around the globe just to do that?

[@nuclearrdx4045]

don't like this particular video much......it seems more like 15 things you don't know about london hotels, rather than the city. the city has so much to offer.

[@alux]

+Mimin Rdx we are a luxury channel, all our videos relate to fine living somehow, that's why we're mentioning all these fine places!

[@nuclearrdx4045]

Alux.com are you sure "luxury living" in a city is confined to a bar with a view, a spa with a view.....just sayin london as a city has so much to offer in luxury living besides the amenities of her hotels. as an example, sports : you can go on and on about the most expensive seats in wimbledon (tennis) or stamford bridge (football). the summer inflow of middle eastern rich and their cars (which is a luxury phenomenon not found elsewhere). real estate :expensive penthouses (one hyde park has one, if i am not mistaken). museums : v$a, tate modern, british museum....eponynomous with luxury fine arts. i am sure the rich ppl does appreciate a well curated museum in the city they are living. cultural richness alongwith weath, just sayin... so much more, and many more....

[@michaelpockat1267]

Alux.com no this is a leftist channel...... has nothing to do with luxury........ and your fact check is false stop listening to ppl on the streets and get your facts correct......

[@danhughes7047]

I live in London at present, but due to foreign billionaire bastards buying up property in all four corners of the city, i most likely will not be able to live my home town so I don't see the point of glorifying the people who are taking away proper affordable homes from people who have lived in the city all their lives and have access to the type of funds middle and lower income Londoners, which make up the majority of the city, will never come close to. We shouldn't glorify decadence whilst there are people in impoverished areas of London, like Barking and Dagenham, Newham etc, who are suffering whilst there are the rich upper classes who won't even donate to those who have lost family, belongings and their homes in Grenfell Tower

[@aaanawaleh]

+Dan Hughes just because I live in the tri-borough, it doesn't mean that I am an idiot who doesn't give money to charity!

[@neomasetlane5844]

that's the how we Africans feel about the fact that almost all the precious lands and mines being owned by the foreigners because they have money to buy,

[@asy3584]

I live in North Kensington, London its a pretty different side to the London that we see today. Kensington isnt all rich and full of multi billionaires. In fact it's one of the only boroughs that shows a huge contrast between rich and poor. You could even be a billionaire and live a 4 story london home and be next to a council estate.

Well, thank you for introducing London. I am a Londoner. I grew up in South Kensington not far from all these places. Harrods used to be a selective place, not anymore. I used to go there for a good lunch. Sadly, the price has skyrocketed but the quality has gone down. Yes, you have covered London well, however, you left out one the most important part of London: The City. Look it up and you might do just The City?

[@ajenkins0155]

You drive on the "wrong" side of the road at the Savoy so that black cab drivers can open the right hand side door from inside and let you out. If they drove on the left they could not open the left door from inside (they are sat on the right). The width of the street also determines the turning circle of black cabs.

Well actually the Queen isn't a tenant because all Palaces and Castles that she does not personally own are vest in the Crown. The State is the Crown, the Queen is the Head of the Crown, therefore the Queen has the pleasure of using the Palaces.

[@surajpatole1875]

Hi Alux creators. I'll just start by saying that the videos are no doubt amazing. The point that bothers us is the negation used in the titles. If we could try using '15 things you should know about ...' it will have a positive ring to it. Please consider this thought.

How does a wealthy sort avoid acid attacks from the diverse multiculturals? I like the exotic cuisine, but it must be difficult to go slumming into the bohemian areas of London without the worry of getting a big, heaping splash of love from a local mugger. If I were a billionaire, I would want to do all I could to avoid the acid throwers.

No4 is because of the savoy theatre being on the right of savoy place. So in order for people to alight taxis on the correct side we drive on the right. And the turning circle taxis in London must have 25 feet is based on being able to turn in savoy place in one manoeuvre

London has some quality people that you'll never get anywhere else in the world such as Skepta, JME, KSI and The Chicken Connoisseur. London is also the place where you can get stabbed by a "roadman" with the precision like they are the king of jousting in 1459, truly a brilliant place but if you go south east into the county of Kent you get the most middle class UKIP voters in the UK which you wouldn't get anywhere else. So my foreign friends come to England and visit London.

This video is not just about the 1.12 square miles of the City of London. Much of what is shown is within the City of Westminster. The monarch owns also the Palace of Westminster in right of the Crown, and which maintains its status as a royal residence.

[@lennyw99]

If you ask a taxi driver why Savoy Court is the only road in London where you drive on the right he will tell you it is so the passengers can get out in front of the hotel on the driver’s side where he can assist more easily. Good old British courtesy.
