Itinerario

1. This is one of the most prominent tudor facades in London. The original building from 1585 was once the wool staple, where wool was weighed and taxed. It survived the great fire of London, was refaced in the 17th century and restored in the 19th and 20th centuries. The hall was damaged by bombing in 1944.

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.
