The English capital is famous for its diverse cultural centre. With the various museums, art galleries, theatres, and cinemas, any tourist would surely be dazzled by the city’s outstanding beauty.
Now, the only way to appreciate the city’s overall international heritage and learn about its magnificent culture is by taking the London Tours.
During the London tour, you’ll get to see an abundance of historical buildings, but still keeping up on the trend of modern structure. Most tourists are also captivated with old buildings especially London’s top 6 internationally acclaimed cultural landmarks, a proof of the city’s distinct architecture. One of the must-see tourist spots include The Tower of London, St. Margaret’s Church, Westminster Abbey, the Houses of Parliament, and of course, the famous Big Ben Tower.
A fine example of medieval architecture is The Tower of London, built by William the Conqueror in the 11th century. The famous tower was once a place for execution of criminals who had done scandalous crimes. Next to the Tower of London is the Tower Bridge which is also a famous landmark in London. You’ll get to know more about the amazing history of the tower once you get to join The Tower of London Tours.
Dedicated to St. Margaret of Antioch, St. Margaret’s Church was rebuilt in 1687 by Sir Christopher Wren when the Great Fire of London destroyed it in 1666. The “punishment box” found in the church where wrong doers sit during the services surely makes the whole place a London attraction.
Another place you shouldn’t dare miss is the Westminster Abbey, the venue for main events and coronation in Britain since 1066. The church today is not just a place of worship, but also the venue for celebrations of the milestones of the British nation.
Walking around the Houses of Parliament is one of the things to do in London. Also known as the Westminster Palace, the Houses of Parliament is the place where the two houses meet, the House of Lords and the House of Commons. The Big Ben, a 316 ft. high tower is another famous cultural landmark in London that will leave you in awe. Located at the north bank of the Thames River, the Thames river cruise gives you the impressive view of the Palace as well as the Big Ben Tower.
A few of the many landmarks that you should also visit when you’re in London are the Buckingham Palace, the British National Museum, the Royal Opera House, and the Trafalgar Square.
Home to more than 300, 000 nationalities, London’s diversified cultures has helped shape the city over time. Get the most out of your visit by joining London walking tours and London tours to experience the world’s cultural capital.
