Springtime London Offers Attractions Aplenty for Thai Holidaymakers

Springtime London Offers Attractions Aplenty for Thai Holidaymakers Fares to London and UK start from just THB 29,000 In terms of things to see, and do, Thai holidaymakers will be spoilt for choice if they visit London during the Songkran and May holidays. They will also enjoy one of the best times of the year to explore England’s cosmopolitan, vibrant and historically-rich capital, said Mr. Siriram Narayan, British Airways Country Manager for Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia. “As Songkran, and May school holidays coincide with the arrival of spring in the UK, Thai vacationers are fortunate to enjoy one of the best times of the year to visit London and other UK destinations,” said Mr. Narayan. “As well as milder weather and longer days, April and early May offers a chance to enjoy a ‘quieter’ London before the traditional tourism high season kicks-off in June and runs until September.” Besides London’s famous museums and art galleries; historical landmarks such as Buckingham Palace, The Tower of London, and Westminster Abbey; thousands of restaurants, pubs, and clubs; and a thriving music, theatre, and arts scene, Thai travellers of all ages can enjoy a host of spring-time treats such as: - English Premier League Football (EPL) – Watch a favourite club team play in the final, exciting stages of the EPL season - View from the Shard – Enjoy panoramic views from London’s stunning new architectural landmark. At 310 metres high, the Shard is the tallest building in Western Europe - Portrait of HRH the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton – View the first official portrait of the Duchess of Cambridge at the National Portrait Gallery - Cake International – A popular three-day event that celebrates everything good about cakes, baking and cake decorating - London Marathon – This world-class marathon is famous for its scenic route, strong pool of runners, and many celebration parties across the city - Sundance London – The world’s premier annual independent film event holds its London leg of the festival in late April from 25-28 April, 2013 - Live Music – Teen pop sensations, One Direction begin a series of concerts in London in May - Walking With Dinosaurs – This acclaimed, family favourite theatrical event extravaganza begins its UK run in May In addition, Thais who love to shop can take advantage of a favourable Thai Baht/Pound Sterling exchange rate.
