G no offense but you have never lived there. Going to somewhere as a tourist is an ENTIRELY different perspective.
I lived in London for 5 years, and it is one of the greatest cities in the world..

"Sir, if you wish to have a just notion of the magnitude of this city, you must not be satisfied with seeing its great streets and squares, but must survey the innumerable little lanes and courts. It is not in the showy evolutions of buildings, but in the multiplicity of human habitations which are crowded together, that the wonderful immensity of London consists."
Samuel Johnson wrote that in the 1700s. It is just as true today as it was then.
