London Open House Weekend

16th and 17th September 2006

This festival gives everyone the opportunity to visit over 600 buildings new and old across London which are not normally open to the public. Visits are free and highlights include the Bank of England, The Foreign Office, Festival Hall, St Pancras Station as well as private homes ranging from the very grand to the very eco friendly.

You do need to buy a guide to see the full list of all 600 buildings but for £3 it's worth it - you can download a PDF http://www.londonopenhouse.org/london/shopnine.html
