The places people have suggested are good, and often overlooked, places but I do think a first visit to London would trump them all.
One of the greatest cities in the World, and rich in History! Think of all that's happened there! It was at one point the centre of the empire! Not to mention some of the famous residents and events!
Here are some of the places you could visit (I spilt them up into the locations which are near each other):
- Tower of London
- London Bridge
- St Paul's Cathedral
- The London Eye
- Big Ben and Houses of Parliament
- Buckingham Palace
- Convent Garden, Leicester Square/Oxford Street/Regent Street
- Hyde Park
- The British Museum, The Science Museum/Natural History Museum and the Imperial War Museum to name a few of the museums which are good.
To name but a few of the ones I can think of right now. There is also a lot of areas which are just nice like Chelsea and South Kensington. The Tube will take you out to other places if you are so inclined such as Greenwich (which has the Observatory and the Greenwich Meridian Line). Although I would recommend the river boat from Westminster and along the Thames.
It's the capital of your country
People travel from around the world to see it because it's arguably the most famous city in the world. It is the most visited. Your a train ride away and you have never seen it? Seems a really obvious choice
