rehber kitaplarını genelde sevmem; fotoğraflar kalitesiz, gereksiz bilgilerle ve tarih detaylarıyla dolu tanıtım yazıları yavan ve sıkıcı olur. ilk kez bir şehir rehberini sevdim; fotoğrafları sevdim, detaylı ama genel bilgi veren yazıları sevdim ve kitabın derli toplu olmasını da sevdim.
The most useful guidebook of the ones I looked at, both before and during my trip to London; I especially liked the neighborhood-based structure of the guide.
This book was my loyal companion when I holidayed alone in London. Having used Rough Guides 20 years ago when travelling around Europe, I had high expectations of it and it didn't let me down. Now a little tatty I am currently using it to plan my next visit.
Rough Guides have reformatted and updated a good number of their guides including London. I have the newest one and I love the new format. Great coverage of the city, it is divided by neighbourhoods. Also divided by attractions that are north, south, east, and west. I find this edition easier to read, and the addition of more full colour pictures is nice. The best thing however are the maps. There are way more and easy to read and very accurate. You won't need anything else to help you explore the city.
This brilliant guide was my loyal companion as I holidayed alone in London this summer. It was my best friend! I had great expectations of it having used Rough Guides 20 years ago when I travelled around Europe. It didn't disappoint! Now slightly dog-eared I am using it to plan my next trip to the city. As a lover of the historical London I love how I can use this guide to plan my excursions into the past. A bus map (similar to the tube map) would be an added bonus as I'd never thought of using buses to get around and that was a whole new experience.
I'm going there! I like a Rough Guide for this trip in part because they're Brits, so hopefully they know what they're talking about. 'Course I'll be looking through several others as well. I'm going at the end of August, with me Mum.
It is a good guide and has many ways of demonstrating some of the better places in London to see aside from Touristy spots. I like the bits of information it adds about "battles and times" so there are pieces about the WWI or WWII. Also there is a little piece here and there about the War of The Roses etc. The Timeline is quite handy for readers who havent much knowledge on London..
Its a great overview as a rough guide to London ^-^
