Fancy visiting a real home away from home?
Well, this luxury London-themed resort in China could be just the thing.
The Londoner Macao has replicated more London landmarks than you can shake a stick at – from Number 10 Downing Street to Big Ben, which overlooks two heated outdoor pools. Perfect for a surreal swimming experience.
The resort, which includes two hotels, The Londoner Hotel and Londoner Court, also has replicas of the iconic Abbey Road, the Shaftesbury Memorial Fountain, and even Downing Street’s Larry the Cat.
Once a day there’s a very elaborate Changing of the Guard ceremony à la Buckingham Palace, and a double-decker bus you can pose on for pics.
