A place in London

It's hard to talk about a place that I've never visited or at least have been interested in there. (I'm sorry, I'd have prefered to go to Ireland or Scotland, or visit Stonehenge...). Seeking on the webquests about London, I found that this enormous city is divided in different regions, and I was drawn by the North London, because the Wikipedia defincion said that is more alike to a small village with hills and lakes. I don't like the cities with so many noises streets, high buildings, colapsed traffic, bad smells, contamination or garbages, though they had many services or more people. I imagine that place like the town where J. R. R. Tolkien grew up, and he then described how The Shire was. This is because when I listen the word "London" I only see a ever cloudy sky, and the bridge over the Támesis river. Well, this is all for now. Have a nice day!
