Keep Calm…and go to London…
The capital of the United Kingdom is a thriving multicultural metropolis. The contrast between the spectacular historic sights, the bustle of a big city, and the lively cultural and foodie scene makes London an iconic, intriguing and exciting destination. There’s the amazing theatre, the quiet squares and parks, lively nightlife and the different neighborhoods with their own historic links to the past and characteristics. There is so much history, tradition, pomp and ceremony while being culturally diverse with lots of fantastic new architecture and modern thinking. London is built on commerce and gave the world modern banking, the stock exchange and insurance and even now remains the world’s hub for the financial, technology and fashion industry.
As we focus on What’s New, we recognize the investment and development across the city. The Battersea & Nine Elms redevelopment is home to some of the embassies and an exciting entertainment riverside development. There’s Olympia in West Kensington, getting ready for its next 130 years and undergoing a $1.4 billion (£1.3 billion) investment with a focus on exhibitions, events, entertainment and the arts including a 1,500 seat theatre and two new hotels. London is a gateway to other parts of the UK and Scotland is within easy reach by flight or by taking one of the brand new trains that are now running from London’s Kings Cross to Edinburgh.

THE CLOISTERS
Experience Divinity at The Cloisters…
The Cloisters at Westminster Abbey were once of the busiest parts of the Abbey where the monks spent much of their time. A fire in 1298 damaged much of the area of the cloisters of the Norman church so they had to be substantially rebuilt and this is what we see today. Each of the cloisters is about 100 feet in length and date mainly from the 13th to the 15th centuries.
In the warmer months, treat your guests to an atmospheric event in this elegant open-air arcade.

After time to explore the Abbey, the guests are invited through to the Cloisters. This impressive space adjoins the main part of the Abbey (the nave) and overlook a grass quadrangle (garth). Here, a drinks reception and/or seated dinner takes place while we hear Big Ben quietly chime every 15 minutes in the background.
