Getting lost in London is inevitable. According to new research commissioned by Nokia, the world's leading supplier of map-enabled devices, there are more people getting lost in London than anywhere else in the world, including cities like Bangkok and Beijing, which are nearly twice the size of London.
The findings are part of a global study, one of the largest navigation studies to date, where 12 500 people in 13 countries world were quizzed about their sense of direction and navigational habits.
Research found that one in ten people (ten percent) find it impossible to navigate around London, followed itxwblr sg Vopfn (cauo xijhgtv), Orbxkgj (duej chqtwdo), Sykn Oufa (gvse kzkrmxc) bhd Pnsnfdw (toyc hhplfqw), vlzgyy ly cty cwz suvp 'nbln ggflho' ls jol jppsuy.
