LONDON – A City With Many Faces – The Spirit Of The Past And The Modern. Which Do You Like More?

Explore London before you arrive.

When we think of London, most of us think of Buckingham Palace. This is one building which is among the others the most visited attraction of this city. Be sure to put it on your “Must See” list.

While you’re still in the spirit of the past, I recommend a 15-minute drive and a visit to one of the eight royal parks, the famous Regent’s Park,  with an area of 410 hectares. In addition to beautiful gardens, over 3000 roses, rows of trees, the most prominent sports area in London, and numerous protected species of birds, you can visit the Open-Air Theater. Not far from this park, in the northern part, there is also a zoo.

The best things to see in London are the London Historic House Museum, the Tower of London, the Royal Albert Hall and Buckingham Palace, The English Parliament Houses, Windsor Castle, and Tower Bridge. The beautiful Natural Park of Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens is just around the corner. London can be confusing, and if you don’t have a clue what you want to do here, the best thing is to ask your hotel about the preferred area to visit and the recommended Tourist Maps.

Covent Garden is a place that’s truly a part of London’s DNA.

It is a bustling activity hub located in the heart of London’s West End. There are many things to see and do here, from viewing the works at the British Museum to visiting the Royal Opera House.

Covent Garden Market is one of London’s most iconic attractions, with its glass-roofed piazza dating back to the 19th century, but the market actually dates back to the 17th century. The piazza is surrounded by pubs and cafes, making it perfect for a lunch break or after-work drinks.

It’s where you can find some of the city’s most famous and well-loved attractions, like the market and the piazza, and some hidden gems just waiting for you to discover. The area around Covent Garden also boasts many museums and theatres, including the British Museum and Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre. Whether you’re looking to explore the past or experience modern design, Covent Garden has something for everyone.

Tower Bridge in London

Tower Bridge, one of London’s most famous landmarks and most beautiful bridges, is an icon. It is unique, historic architecture, and it’s a working bridge that you can see opening or closing to allow ships to pass.

The bridge was built in 1894, and it has been a working bridge ever since! Make sure you check the official website for times–the lifting process takes between 3 and 5 minutes. You don’t want to be late!

You can find out when Tower Bridge is lifting or closing by checking their site.

Hop-On Hop-Off bus tour

A Hop-On Hop-Off bus tour is an excellent way for tourists to explore the sights of a city without having to worry about getting lost. All you have to do is hop on and off as desired, making it perfect for visitors who want to see as much of the city as possible in one day. Plus, since the buses travel along many well-known routes, you’ll be able to get an overview of the major attractions without ever feeling rushed or stuck in one place too long.

London Eye

The London Eye is a popular tourist attraction in London that offers panoramic views of the city from its 32 glass capsules. It was opened to the public on 18 May 2000 and has become one of London’s most iconic landmarks, regularly voted as one of the best places to visit in England.

If you’re looking for an amazing way to see all of London from a unique perspective, then The London Eye should definitely be at the top of your list! Not only will you get stunning 360-degree views, but you’ll also get a sense of what it was like to be inside one of these capsules during rotation. The ride lasts about 30 minutes and offers amazing city views from above. The lens-like windows create an immersive experience, as does the slow rotation over the river Thames.

Madame Tussauds – London Wax Museum

Madame Tussauds London is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. You can see wax sculptures of famous people and other priceless artifacts when you visit the museum. The museum spans an area of 934 square meters and is located in Leicester Square in central London. That’s big enough to fit around 120 Ferraris inside! Tourists can visit the attraction at any time, and new exhibits are always waiting to be explored.

This is the ideal place for tourists to get a close-up view of some of the world’s most famous faces. From Shakespeare to Taylor Swift, you’ll be able to experience their lives in a way that you never could before. You can also enjoy the Marvel Universe 4D Experience or take part in one of our other exciting attractions. With more than 150 wax figures on display, Madame Tussauds London is an unforgettable experience for any visitor!

The Sea Life London aquarium

The Sea Life London Aquarium is a wonderful place to see some of the most beautiful sea creatures. Visitors can find up to 400 species of animals, including sharks, stingrays, moray eels, and clownfish. There are many stunning green sea turtles that visitors can watch as they eat their morning breakfast. For those who want to test their nerves, there is always a chance for fun in the “shark walk”. Here, visitors can walk behind live sharks on a glass floor.

In addition to all this amazing wildlife activity, Sea Life London provides educational programs such as daily talks and feeding times so that guests know everything there is to know about these fascinating creatures. The area inside the aquarium itself is pretty large – it’s enough space for everyone who wants to visit!

I have many places I haven’t mentioned waiting to be explored.

To summarize, London is where you can explore the list of places I included above and still not get bored. There is one thing everyone would agree about – London is magical, and it can take you to a whole new world if you are open to exploring.

You have noticed that many other sights of London are not included in this post. In future posts, I will cover the famous Westminster Bridge, Big Ben, Trafalgar Square, and many other features of this city and this distant European country.

After exploring its many faces, you can confidently say that this city has much more to offer than its history. Explore not only its historical legends but also see how it has changed over time!

I recommend visiting a pub at lunchtime. The dishes will be more than you expect and I hope you will try the Lancashire Hot Pot or Shepard Pie.
And if you can’t make it in London, you can prepare a traditional Lancashire Hot Pot at home by following the instructions on the Foodie page.
