Regent Street, London

Well known to tourists and Londoners alike, Regent Street (named after the Prince Regent) is one of the major shopping streets in London's West End. Completed in 1825, it runs from the Regent's residence at Carlton House in St James's at the southern end, through Piccadilly Circus and Oxford Circus, to All Souls Church. Shop among the 2 km (1.24 mi) of store frontage where you can choose from an extensive range of international brands or simply admire the architecture. Relax and enjoy a bite to eat or a drink at the new food quarters following your shopping expedition, or continue the route to Regent's Park.
