We’ve scoured the city to find the most interesting facts, the most fiendish puzzles and the most secret places, and wrapped them all up in our self-guided treasure hunts. London is one of the most ancient metropolises in the world and its vibrant, turbulent and sometimes downright violent history is still writ large across the city today – if you know where to look! We aim to look beyond the picture-postcard landmarks to show off London's idiosyncracies, its hidden-away gems and the relics of Roman, Medieval, Tudor and Victorian times that litter its thoroughfares and alleys. We’re currently uncovering London’s hidden gems in the ancient City of London, the royal Kensington Gardens and the dynamic South Bank and eerie East End in Shadows of the Slums. In Spring 2010, London Treasure Hunts will launch Painter, Sailor, Soldier, Giant an exploration of the entertainment and legal centres of London that introduces a wild array of characters who’ve indelibly marked our city.
