London ABC part I

Aleix G. William Londoner, Only-Be, Practical Guide to London

You can visit some rooms inside the palace, but if you come with the intention to meet the Queen for a cup of tea, you’ll be disappointed. Bus: There´s nothing more symbolic in London that its red double-decker buses. Other famous symbols of the British capital include its picturesque phone booths and black taxis. Riding a double-decker bus is a must in London. via jimmyharris Downing Street: This is the street where the British Prime Minister lives, in the number 10 to be more precise. This street used to be open to the public but closed at the moment. However, you can still visit the street entrance. Eye: The London Eye is the famous ferris wheel on the banks of the river, which provides its visitors with an incomparable view of the city. The total height of the wheel is 135 meters and a full rotation takes about half an hour. It is the tallest Ferris wheel in Europe and receives about 3.5 million visitors a year.

Anyone who has not tried is missing a lot!

The Globe is a wooden theater that recreates the theaters exactly how they were at Shakespeare´s time.... read more
