Soho has to be one of the renowned places in London town. Full of vibrant enchantment and strange people; basically Doctor Who's wet dream.
The lost world is a contrast between the weird and wonderful , men walking with confidence in 6 inch Christian Louboutins and the straight men pretending not to look. A few metres down there is the pleasant China Town where before 8pm they're offering hot lamb dough balls off a hand-made cart and after 8pm it's full of rival drug gangs. People say it's the pinkest part of London but I would have to disagree, I think it attracts more heterosexuals than homosexuals to the gay club scene ( no wonder it's in the City of Westminster).
Soho was originally grazing farmland until 1536 , when it was taken by Henry VIII as a royal park for the palace of Whitehall ( well it's full of Queens now). The name 'Soho' supposedly derives from a former hunting cry at the Battle of Sedgemoor.
As well as an ostentatious club scene and a wild night at the theatre , Soho offers fantastic bites to eat. If you're ever in the area check out Bocca di Lupo an authentic Italian restaurant guaranteed to never disappoint.
