A recent London Architecture Walking Tour in the British Museum: photo © Adrian Welch In October/November 2012 e-architect have taken two groups of Norwegians around the city (architects and construction professionals), Russian interior architects/designers and Japanese art collectors. London Architecture Tour - Reference 8 Nov 2012 "....I have nothing but good things to say about our guide. We were all very satisfied, and very impressed about his skills and knowledge. He was always on time, he was always in a great mood (even though we were 40 confused Norwegians who tended to get lost and talk a lot) and he seemed to know everything about every building we passed. We can truly recommend both e-architect and the guide! London Walking Tours : referrals London Architecture - Introduction London is the capital of the UK. There is a wealth of architecture here - from historic churches and palaces to modern art galleries and offices. Key architects from the past are Sir Christopher Wren and Nicholas Hawksmoor. More recently architects such as Foster, Rogers, Stirling, Hadid and Piano have created major buildings in London.

Older architecture of historical importance that we can visit on the walking tour include buildings such as the Houses of Parliament, the Tower of London and Buckingham Palace. To take in these London buildings some walking tours require transport, typically on the Tube. Major clusters of buildings exist in Westminster, the City of London and the Isle of Dogs. Important architecture is also scattered throughout the West End and in Kensington & Chelsea.
