IGNORANCE OF THE LAW IS NO EXCUSE
London
51 Piccadilly, London W1J 0QJ
If you are looking for a bit of calm on Piccadilly, slip into Burlington Arcade. Here, there is no running, no whistling, no singing. No one will collide into you with his or her umbrella. Why not? Since the beginning of the 19th century, the arcade has had its own jurisdiction and it sets its own—very strict—laws. A man in a top hat and Edwardian frock coat even has the task of ensuring everyone obeys the law to the letter. On your best behaviour now!
