During the trip, she visited the London Zoo, the Diana memorial fountain at Hyde Park, and of course did a spot of shopping along Portobello Road.

There she visited Alice’s, an antique dealer which specialises in decorative furniture from a range of periods.

She reportedly spent 30 minutes in the store, which was said to have closed especially for her, but it is unknown if she made any purchases.

She did however make three female fans day when her security let them in the store to meet her.

Earlier in the day Taylor also took time out to visit the Princess Diana Memorial fountain at Hyde Park.

Gazing into the water, the young star appeared to be paying her respects and also carefully read the fountain’s plaque.

The memorial fountain was officially opened by Queen Elizabeth in July 2004.

According royalparks.org,uk: ‘The design aims to reflect Diana’s life, water flows from the highest point in two directions as it cascades, swirls and bubbles before meeting in a calm pool at the bottom. The water is constantly being refreshed and is drawn from London’s water table,’ it says.

The Memorial also symbolises Diana’s quality and openness. There are three bridges where you can cross the water and go right to the heart of the fountain.’

Listening to her iPod, Taylor clearly was enjoying some alone time during the sightseeing tour.

She smiled as she marveled over a pair of picturesque perfect swans and took particular interest in a giant bird sculpture at the grounds.

The singer was reportedly in London to rehearse for the Les Miserables film, where she thought to be playing the role of Eponine, according to broadwayworld.com.

The full cast has not officially been announced but several publications have reported that Taylor has snagged the role.

She is said to be joining a star-studded roll call, consisting of Hugh Jackman in the lead role of Jean Valjean, Russell Crowe as Javert, Amanda Seyfried as Cosette, Sacha Baron Cohen as Thernardier, Eddie Redmayne as Marius, Aaron Tveit as Enjolras, Anne Hathaway as Fantine and Helena Bonham Carter as Madame Thenardier.

Taylor’s London trip comes after it was rumoured that she was romantically linked to High School Musical star Zac Efron, after the pair recently enjoyed an intimate dinner together.

But if 24-year-old actor Efron fancies Taylor he has a very strange way of showing it.

Taylor was alone networking at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival in Utah last week while Zac was out partying with Ashley Tisdale.

Efron and Taylor were seen being rather flirtatious when the pair allegedly arrived at an Italian restaurant and ‘were deep in conversation and very giggly’ earlier during the week.

After a red carpet appearance together to promote their upcoming movie The Lorax, and gushing remarks about each other, the couple were thought to be more than just friends.
