Route

  1. We start by visiting a picture of Lucifer patron saint of the idle and self indulgent. Some of the rich have used their wealth to improve the lives of their fellow human beings. None of these good people make any appearance on this tour! This tour is designed to enable you to hear stories of lust, greed and vanity from centuries past.

  2. London's first shopping mall is very high end and sets the tone for the interactive walking experience that you have just started. Maybe think a little bit about if money is no object how might it effect your morals?

  3. One of the world's most exclusive auction houses has witnessed many a scandal over the years. The neighbourhood is where Nell Gwyn one of the most famous mistresses of the Merry Monarch Charles 11 lived. Nell had a particular talent for money grabbing in all matters to do with the King. Do you admire her ambition in a world which had few opportunities for women or do you dislike her morals?

  4. Love games took place here between the Tudor King Henry V111 and his second wife Anne Boleyn five hundred years ago. Subsequent centuries were to be equally scandal filled!!!

  5. Charles 1 walked here to his execution on a cold January morning in 1649. Some people remember him as a Martyr Saint, but is it possible to be a Saint when you knowingly lie? Much else that has happened in this Park over the centuries is far from Saintly!!!

    10 min

  6. The Old Queen is Anne from three hundred years ago most recently brought back to life in the film `The Favourite` which depicted her as part of a bitter lesbian love triangle. Are we just discussing gossip History for a bit of fun or is there something to learn about human nature here?

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.
