Think you’ve traipsed around every worthwhile destination the city has to offer? Think again.

This is a handbook to London’s most perplexing points of interest and hidden corners: visit the Victorian mausoleum supposedly containing a time machine, go shopping for Viking supplies, get crafty at a squirrel taxidermy workshop and then enjoy dinner and a cowbell show at an ersatz alpine lodge.

There’s plenty of weirdness in London. Lucky for you, we’ve sorted the best from the... better avoided.

So come with curiosity and an open mind, and get ready for some shock, amusement and plain unusual intrigue.
