Christmas in the Capital

The festive season is one of the best times to visit London. The sights, sounds and smells of the city on cold winter's night add to the festive spirit and make it an amazing place to be at this time of year.

Before you start shopping in earnest, take some time out to enjoy the Christmas lights and window displays in the most famous stores. Hamleys, Fortnum & Mason, Marks & Spencer and Debenhams are displaying Christmas lights that will leave you stunned. Known for their Christmas window displays, Selfridges have an amazing selection in their windows this season with sumptuously bright red telephone boxes and a festive dog walker display among those currently wowing shoppers and passers by.
