- More than 100 recruits to the Brigade of Gurkhas have taken part in a cultural visit to London, the first time many of the men have experienced Britain's capital.
The trip forms an important part of the recruits' training experience, offering them an opportunity to test their ongoing grasp of English and take in some of the city's iconic landmarks.
While on the visit, the soldiers were treated to tea and biscuits with the Speaker of the House of Commons, Sir Lindsay Hoyle.

Ghurkhas are absolutely brilliant, some of the best soldiers in the British Army.
You are more than welcome here gentlemen. You have a special place in the hearts of the British people. We thank you. 🇬🇧
Well said Ian, I couldn't agree more.
amongst the best the British army has to offer
As an Aussie I've endless respect for the Gurkhas. Grew up in Hong Kong and they used to come and kick footballs around with us on sports day in primary school. Great blokes. My ex-RAAF parents used to say there was no reason to worry about 1 million PLA soldiers over the border when there were a few thousand Gurkhas in HK. They may have been joking but I believed them.
These lads are some of the most professional and loyal soldiers you will ever see. We are so lucky to have them by our side. Their Motto says it all. It Is better to Die than live like a Coward.
Second to none, they are among the very best soldiers in the world. I am so proud they are on our side.
Thank you to every single Ghurkha past, present & future for your service in our British Army. You have my total respect & a special place in my heart.
There was a group of Gurkhas out in Newcastle this past Tuesday - immaculate, polite, humble. I bumped into them several times. They do themselves proud.
Welcome to the British army 💂🇬🇧
These gents make me proud to be Nepali, Jai Nepal!
So professional and badass at the same time!
Well done, lads 👍🇳🇵🇬🇧
They seem a great bunch of lads.
Thank you for your service. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Some of the best soldiers I have had the opportunity to work with, welcome! GB

Gentlemen, welcome. You have a very special place in the hearts of us here in the UK. Some of the finest soldiers, ever. May your God go with you and thank you.
we don't do enough for these guys
These men are so smart,polite, brave and people to whom I give my greatest respect and Thanks. X
Conocí de los Gurkas en la guerra de las Malvinas...fantástico.
Aquí en Perú salieron hasta unos botines( zapatos) llamados "Gurkas" se soponía eran muy resistentes.
Gurkhas are legendary.
Wow.
Johnny Gurkha; you are hugely respected and muched love by all Britons.
Thank you for serving our country .
Imagine coming from a small village and seeing this.
Legends
Thanks for this snapshot of a very newsworthy report!
No way, I was in London for the first time on Saturday too! (I think that's when they went)
theyve also been in York over the last week.
I think Brits and Europeans in general really like any type of Southeast Asian "looking" people (even if they are Nepali). I think you can do no wrong by them. Probably because so many Europeans go to Asia for vacation and have good memories of the place and the cultural values are similar.
lads on tour
Our old Empire did lots of things wrong but it was rarely stupid, after one war with the Gurkhas it decided whatever happens we want these guys on our side next time! So a peace deal was done and This has worked for over 150 years. The Indian army has several regiments too.
If only all British soldiers had the dedication and attitude of the Ghurkas and their Nepali training staff it would be a very different army and would have so much more public respect and support.

Welcome, lads! 🙏 I hope you're happy here in the uk and your training goes well ! God bless and thank you for being part of our warrior forces! Best in the world!
Poor lads don't know what they're letting themselves in for. Gurkhas are traditionally first in line for cannon fodder, even before the Irish or the rest of them, the brave Brits go last when all is clear.
