Famous for having a Monarch Government, this place is suitable for those who wants to meet their Prince! (Just kidding, but what if?)

Feast your eyes on the best restaurants in London and familiar landmarks – Big Ben, Tower Bridge, the murky Thames, the London Eye, and the museums around the metro.

First stop, the Tower of London. Commonly known as the London Bridge, this famous landmark is a must-see for the tourist and even the locals!. The bridge crosses the River Thames and has become an iconic symbol of London. The bridge deck if freely accessible to both vehicles and pedestrians, whilst the bridges's twin towers requires an admission charge to access the high-level walkways and Victorian engine rooms.

Another known attraction is the Big Ben.

Officially named as St. Stephen's Tower, this tower is one of London's famous landmarks. Technically, Big Ben is the name given to the massive bell, among the five bells, inside the clock tower. It looks spectacular at night when the clock faces are illuminated. This tower is certainly an instagrammable place!
