London: “London is a popular centre for tourism, one of its prime industries, employing the equivalent of 350,000 full-time workers in 2003, while annual expenditure by tourists is around £15 billion” informed Sandeep Marwah Managing Director of National Federation of Tourism And Transport Cooperatives of India Limited in a press meet at Hotel Mayfair at London “London attracts over 16 million international visitors per year, making it Europe’s most visited city. London attracts 27 million overnight-stay visitors every year” added Marwah who is also the President of International Chamber of Media And Entertainment Industry. London’s bus network is one of the largest in the world, running 24 hours a day, with about 8,500 buses, more than 700 bus routes and around 19,500 bus stops. In 2013, the network had more than 2 billion commuter trips per annum, more than the Underground. “We will soon prepare a study report on the tourism and transport of London so that we can guide the ministry back home,” confirmed Marwah.
