Atop, the Sky Garden boasts panoramic views of London, blending urban architecture with green serenity. While its stature was curtailed to protect Saint Paul's Cathedral views, its charm remains unmatched.

Duration:  15 minutes

The Monument to the Great Fire of London Behold the Monument to the Great Fire of London, a testament to the city's resilience. Designed by Sir Christopher Wren, its symbolic design signifies where the Great Fire ignited. Beyond its historic significance, an adventurous climb of its 311 steps offers a panoramic view and a commemorative certificate.

Duration:  15 minutes

All Hallows By The Tower All Hallows by the Tower, dating back to 675 AD, stands as London's oldest church, surviving the Great Fire. Inside, one can find remnants from the 13th and 14th centuries and a hidden Roman road. Once frequented by notable figures like John Quincy Adams, its proximity to the Tower of London also echoes darker tales from King Henry VIII's era.

Duration:  10 minutes

Sundial At The Tower Hill Underground Station The Sundial at Tower Hill is more than just a time-telling tool. Each bronze plaque captures pivotal moments in London's history, from the Roman invasion to the end of World War II. As sunlight shifts, it guides us through these events, making this sundial a living chronicle of London's legacy.

Duration:  20 minutes

Tower Bridge Marvel at the iconic Tower Bridge, a unique blend of bascule and suspension design allowing ships passage for over a century. While often mistaken for the London Bridge, its proximity to the Tower of London makes it distinct. It's been a pivotal Thames landmark since the 16th century, with tales of bustling ships and daring feats, like a bus driver heroically leaping its bascules in 1952!
6
The Queen's Walk Stroll the Queen's Walk, a riverside tribute to queens who've shaped London. From a 15th-century bustling Thames to grand houses in the 16th century after King Henry the 8th's reign, it's witnessed pivotal moments, including the 1666 Great Fire. Today, history meets modernity, with landmarks like the London Eye alongside age-old structures.
7
The Shard The Shard, Western Europe's towering icon, stands tall at 310 meters, representing London's modern face. However, its foundations lie in historical Southwark, once bustling with inns and Shakespeare's Globe Theatre.

Duration:  10 minutes

London Bridge London Bridge, ancient and iconic, was more than just a bridge in the 15th century; it was a lively street with shops, homes, and even a chapel.
