Approximately one in five Londoners are of South Asian heritage - encompassing a vast array of peoples, cultures and histories. From suffragettes, political leaders and activists to artists, writers and entrepreneurs, London's history is rich with stories of the ambition, bravery and steadfastness of its South Asian community. Researched and written by Krish Nathaniel and Bushra Mohamed, this two-sided map is an introduction and companion to explore the remarkable lives and history of South Asians in London vis its landmarks.
