It's been almost a year since we started our campaign to raise the footfall of tourists through your towns, and I have no idea why it's taken us so long to take care of our own. This in mind, here are some pictures of London that we've gathered together to remind you what a spiritually disorientating, morally depleted and fun fucking paradise it can be.
Does your town or city qualify for paradise status? Feel free to send your pitches to ukphotoblog@vice.com. We won't bite.
