About Londen

Londen mengt koninklijke ceremonies, wereldmusea en bezienswaardigheden aan de rivier met eigenzinnige wijken, markten en parken om te voet te ontdekken.

De Theems rijgt de stad aaneen. Aan de oevers staan het Parlementsgebouw met Big Ben, de Tower of London met de kroonjuwelen, Tower Bridge en de lange wandelroute langs de South Bank, voorbij het London Eye, Shakespeare's Globe en Tate Modern. St Paul's Cathedral en Westminster Abbey vormen de ankers van de oudere skyline, terwijl glazen torens het financiële district domineren.

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