The Tower of London. As well as many of the best attractions in London, this one has a long history. The construction of the fortress, which stands on the banks of the River Thames, began over 900 years ago. The building was intended for the imprisonment of influential prisoners, including representatives of the royal families. Mary Tudor, Anne Boleyn, and Thomas More have all been here. In certain years, it was also used as a royal residence. The fortress lost its main purpose only in the middle of the 20th century.
St. Paul's Cathedral. If your trip to London is connected with the desire to get acquainted with the unique architectural monuments, take a trip to the city center to this majestic cathedral. Impressive dimensions make the church of St. Nicholas. Peter the Great, designed in the Baroque and Renaissance styles, is one of the largest in Europe and the world. The construction date is the 7th century. Of great interest is the dome of the building, lined with lead slabs.
The London Eye. Such sights of London can not be left without attention. The height of the giant Ferris wheel is 135 meters. Each of the 32 cabins, made entirely of glass (with the exception of the floor), has air conditioning. The number of cubicles, in the shape of an egg, is not chosen by chance. It represents the number of London boroughs (with the exception of the City District). The wheel makes one full circle with stops in half an hour.
Tower Bridge. Another correct version of what to see in London for 1 day is required for every guest of the city. The age of the attraction is only a hundred years. However, it is also considered a true symbol of the capital of Britain. After buying a ticket, you can visit the upper level of the structure – here guests are invited to watch a documentary about its construction.
