Peaceful London contains over 250 of the author's favourite locations throughout the city, from restful gardens and serene churches to silent libraries and inspiring galleries, where the city's volume is muted or even switched off completely.

London is one of the world's most exciting cities, but it's also one of the noisiest. However, if you know where to look the city has a wealth of peaceful places - places to relax, chill out, contemplate, meditate, sit, reflect, browse, read, chat, nap, walk, think, study or even work (if you must) - where the city's volume is muted or even switched off completely.
