im visiting central London on the 28th March, can anyone recommend any places to go see, done normal touristy stuff so looking for something a little different.
I'm also interested in photography, so any photographic places would be good.
Thank you in advance |

Hi. How about the Photographers Gallery just off Oxford St. It is the largest public gallery in London dedicated to photography. There is a cafe there too to hang out afterwards |

You could try the sky garden on top of one of the new buildings in the city, i haven't been yet but it looks interesting. Its a public space and it's fee to go to but you do need a ticket so you'd need to book.
Alternatively what about one of the markets, Portobello on a Saturday and if your still around on Sunday morning Columbia Road flower market is worth a visit. |

Maybe somewhere like Primrose Hill or Hampstead Heath, bring your long lense and get some great views of London, plus you have some nature to photograph, and you never know you might find a horny couple or two in the bushes!!  |

If you are in the city, you can walk through leadenhall market where they filmed Harry Potter
If near Euston you can check out the exhibitions at the Wellcome foundation. There is currently an exhibition on forensics which sounds very CSI |

If you fancy stopping for a drink, there is a huge pub off Leicester Sq called Waxy O'Connors, its really a basement pub with seperate bars scattered around and a massive tree running up throught the middle of the pub. Its quite eye catching. Enjoy. |

Close to there is the monument 311 steps to the top, great views and a certificate to say you have done it. It commemorates the fire of London and is 311 feet from where it started. Nearest tube, monument |
