What are some unique things to do while traveling to London for someone who has already visited the city?

Little Venice is a decent place.

Thank you for the suggestion. I've traveled to Venice, Italy before, but this looks like a unique place to see in London. LINK

Lots of good options. Are there any cool places where scenes from the Harry Potter movies have been filmed?

Go eat a cheeseburger and fries and wings at Meat Mission. Life changing.

There are several but the British War Museum is a haunting place. The one I went to had battleship guns outside. I still get at chills thinking about the WW1 rain jacket they have on display covered in gore and mustard gas and dozen other disgusting things.

They also have some cool artifacts. TE Lawrence's motorcycle and Yeltsin's sword.

I tend to go through museums very very quickly but I could stay all day in that place.

Also, if and when you go to Oxford (which you should, I love that place), there are several awesome museums there. I'd say you can skip the history of science one (the only thing I remember about that was bloat fish and a signed copy of origin of species).

The Ashmolen and the Oxford Natura History museum might be the two best museums I've ever been to. The Oxford natural history museum has two parts mind you. There's one with all the dinosaurs and mammoths and creepy bugs in jars. But there is also a huge anrthipologica wing which has a ton of cool shot like shrunken heads, the evolution of weaponry, and all sorts of cool tribe shite.

What I do every time even as a London regular is just walk, literally from Kings Cross to the river thames.

I just walk south and figure it out and see new stuff every time.
