LONDON VOTED THE DIRTIEST CITY IN EUROPE !

Like the bit about the worst dressed locals !!

Our favourite restaurants are dirtiest ???
I dont believe that :lol: :lol:


London, May 4 (ANI): Heading to London? Well, here’s a piece of information for you-the UK capital is Europe’s dirtiest, most expensive and has the worst cuisine, according to a poll of travellers.

The survey of 2,376 European travellers by the TripAdvisor company also called the British capital to inhabit the worst-dressed locals.

If this was not enough, London was reckoned to have the most tourist traps, but also the best free attractions, easily the best public parks and the best nightlife.

It was for the second time in row that London had been voted the dirtiest European city in the poll, and that too with a huge margin.

A total of 36 per cent travellers claimed the Queen’s city as the dirtiest- well ahead of Paris in second place with 9 per cent.

However, almost 50 per cent of those polled rated London best for public parks, with Paris a distant second with just 7 per cent.

“I have travelled quite a lot and there are NO parks in the world like the ones in London, especially St James’s Park,’ The Independent quoted a traveller as writing a review on the TripAdvisor website.

The cleanest city was considered to be Copenhagen, while the bargain city was Prague, the friendliest was Dublin and the most boring was Brussels.

Paris had the best-dressed locals and the best cuisine, but was easily the least friendly. (ANI)

Whats wrong with our British dress sense I ask !!

IN my opinion London is very clean, have you been in Paris???
I love Parks in London and regarding the cuisine, tourists just don't know where to eat :)

I've been to Paris and I liked it a lot. I didn't think that it was too dirty. And most people were friendly to us there.

I would say that the least friendly is Athens. Not unfriendly to me in particular but in general people keep swearing with every chance at everybody. Especially in the streets and public transportation!

I think London deserves it's tag. It is dirty and full of lying litter. As Ray says tourists don't know where to eat so they keep to the main areas.
Paris off the main areas is a hole, dog mess on the streets and some eateries are a rip off.
My tip for No1 is Krakow, lovely place, friendly locals and great food.

Scruffiest place I've ever lived was in the Kaneka area of Limassol, about 2 roads back from the seafront. Seafront and esplanade/walkways kept pristine, go two streets away from that and bins were left unemptied, streets never swept (almost impossible to sweep them anyway as cars parked on all pavements) as for the graffiti on EVERY inch of wall.

Yeah Cyprus is filthy, but don't take it out on the Cypriots. Londonistan is what you guys made it, not the Cypriots.
