Destaques

Marylebone is defined by its spectacular garden squares, each with its own character and history. On this self-guided audio tour of the elegant London district, you’ll explore the graceful Georgian and Regency architecture that frames these green havens. You’ll also hear fascinating stories about the aristocrats and artists who’ve called these squares home over the centuries. The tour starts at the Victorian-era Coach Makers’ Arms Pub on Marylebone Lane. You’ll stroll through Manchester Square with its grand mansions, and into Portman Square with its generous gardens. Along the way, you’ll learn how these squares were developed as speculative ventures by wealthy landowners like William Portman, transforming what was once a rural village into one of London’s most desirable residential areas. You’ll come across embassies, historic churches, and the iconic locations where cultural giants once lived. The tour ends at Marylebone Railway Station.

About Londres

Londres junta cerimonial real, museus de nível mundial e monumentos à beira do rio a bairros distintos, mercados e parques para explorar a pé.

O Tamisa costura a cidade. Nas suas margens erguem-se o Parlamento e o Big Ben, a Torre de Londres com as joias da Coroa, a Tower Bridge e o longo passeio da South Bank, que passa pela London Eye, pelo Globe de Shakespeare e pela Tate Modern. A Catedral de São Paulo e a Abadia de Westminster ancoram o horizonte mais antigo, enquanto as torres de vidro se apinham no distrito financeiro.

Top-ranked sights in Londres: St. Paul's Cathedral, Stonehenge, Tower of London.
