I spent 4 days in London. Here are 4 things that were worth it and one I'd skip next time.

I love London, and I was able to take a quick trip there at the end of 2023.Maryam Siddiqi

• I used to live in the UK, and I recently returned to London for a quick four-day trip.
• I recommend checking out the viewing platform at Horizon 22 and taking an Uber Boat on the Thames.

London is one of my favorite cities. There's so much to explore, and it's easy to get around central London on foot or via public transit.

Recently, a friend and I bought tickets to a concert there and built a short getaway around it. I used to live in London, and she'd never been, so we spent four days checking off some of the greatest hits and finding new experiences.

Here are four things I'd do again next time I'm in town and one thing I'd skip.
