South London is worlds ahead!
There are many notable places in South London. The south bank of the Thames has the London Eye, Lambeth Palace, the Tate Modern art gallery, the Saatchi Collection of contemporary art, The Globe Theatre, Battersea Power Station, Battersea Park. Clustered around Waterloo Bridge the National Theatre, the Royal Festival Hall, the National Film Theatre and the Hayward Gallery are often collectively referred to as the South Bank arts complex, although all of these are considered to be in Central London.
Further afield are:
Southwark Cathedral - often seen as the 'lesser' Anglican cathedral in London as it is much less famous than its northern neighbour, St Pauls Cathedral. South London Gallery West Norwood home to West Norwood Cemetery final resting place of many notable people and home to the South London Theatre, a community theatre based in a gothic-revival fire-station. Imperial War Museum, Lambeth Brixton, known for clubbing, Brixton Market and live music. Dulwich Picture Gallery, Britain's oldest public art gallery. Kennington Park, former site of public execution and a "speaker's corner". Greenwich, famous maritime area including the Cutty Sark, Royal Greenwich Observatory, Prime Meridian and National Maritime Museum among others. Blackheath, one of the largest green spaces in London. The Oval, Kennington - South London's main cricket ground. Kew Gardens Richmond Park, Europe's largest city park, including Richmond Palace. Wimbledon, home of the famous tennis championship. New Cross and Deptford, big art and music scenes. Horniman Museum in Forest Hill houses a collection of natural history, anthropology and musical instruments. Croydon is known for retail and its financial culture, it is the largest retail and business development in the south east apart from Central London. Sutton although part of London, has a lot of green open spaces around Carshalton and Cheam, particularly Oaks Park and Nonsuch Park. Hampton Court Palace Danson Park, Bexley Eltham Palace Crystal Palace, on the former site of The Great Exhibition and now is the site of the Crystal Palace National Sports Centre and London's main athletic stadium.

Are all Londoners possessed by that America-like mentality that there isn't a world beyond the M25? "THERE IS NO OUTSIDE!"
