[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Londoner here. To be honest, there are so many neighbourhoods in London like this - [b]the distinct neighbourhoods are what makes London very different to most US cities.[/b] Shoreditch-Hoxton-Islington is one, a totally different one would be Hampstead-Primrose Hill-Camden (I'm linking them like this because they're close and you should try to experience all those different parts), Notting Hill-Westbourne Grove-Kensington.. I'll try to think of more but all of these (all easily accessible by tube) are good places to start[/quote]

How many US cities have you been to? Most major US cities have very distinct neighborhoods, including:

NYC
Chicago
SF
LA
DC

etc. ... [/quote]

I knew as I wrote that that someone would haul me over the coals for it! Yes, each of those cities have distinct neighbourhoods but it's different to London, because of the way London grew and developed as a city. Each of the neighbourhoods in London is like its own small town/village, with a high street full of shops, restaurants, etc. There are some neighbourhoods in some US cities that are a bit like that, but I haven't found that to be the case everywhere.
