درباره این فعالیت

A tour by someone who was here living or working in the area in 60's/70's during the mod and flower power generations, when Soho was buzzing with gangsters, bent policemen, fashion, clubs, nightspots and coffee bars! I actually knew many of these people.and experienced many of these events, at the time! This means I can give plenty of in depth info about how exciting a place Soho was!
