About Londra

Londra unisce cerimoniale reale, musei di fama mondiale e monumenti sul fiume a quartieri ben distinti, mercati e parchi da esplorare a piedi.

Il Tamigi tiene insieme la città. Lungo le sue rive si trovano il Parlamento con il Big Ben, la Torre di Londra con i gioielli della Corona, il Tower Bridge e la lunga passeggiata della South Bank, che passa davanti al London Eye, al Globe di Shakespeare e alla Tate Modern. La cattedrale di St Paul e l'abbazia di Westminster ancorano lo skyline più antico, mentre nel quartiere finanziario si affollano le torri di vetro.

Top-ranked sights in Londra: St. Paul's Cathedral, Stonehenge, Tower of London.
