            The Tower of London
AS if this place needs any introduction. If you are a history buff this is the place to see, if you were to ask most tourists they are going to say they came to London just to visit the Tower of London. See where the crown jewels are housed and stand on the very grounds of where there were three queens executed.! After visiting there, you can talk a brisk walk through the area to the Towers exhibit, and also check out information on the Tower Bridge's architect, Horace Jones, and engineer, John Wolfe The Bridge was the only read more
            Shakespeare’s Globe
If you are visiting the London area, than the one place that you MUST visit during your stay is the Globe located in London where during their open season you are going to see some of the best productions of Shakespeare’s work that you will ever come across. Not only do they offer outstanding tributes to William Shakespeare and his work, through plays, and exhibits their play house offers programs and various events for children ranging from pre-school on up.

            Trafalgar Square
How could you miss one of the capital's most iconic areas? What an opportunity to come and awe over the four giant lion statues. A true work of art frozen in time. In past times, you have been able to visit, walk around and even feed the pigeons, but currently they are asking that you do not bring treats, as this will help with the spread of disease. The Square has many different exhibits, and museums for you to walk around, marvel over all of the artistry, take in some history and just enjoy London at its best. This is o read more
            The London Eye
You cannot go to London and see the sites until you have seen the From the London Eye. The 32 capsules average about 10,000 visitors every day. Due to the architectural structure of the wheel you are going to get to see London like no other, with a FULL 360 degree panoramic view from a suspended distance in the sky. If you know you are going to be in London, then you should get online when and where you can, there you are going to be able to nook your tickets online at their website, which is going to cut your time in half, read more
            Tate Modern
The Tate modern is directly across from St. Paul’s Cathedral which is also right on the River Thames. This again, is one of the most rare places you will be able to visit in London, that is free. A place that you will want to come back to again and again, be sure that you don’t miss anything, each time there will be something you didn’t see the first, time, or perhaps something you see a little differently. You'll often find enormous 'installations' in the Turbine Hall on the ground floor, this is something that woul read more
            Spencer House
If you are one who thrives on the beauty and mystery of historical architecture, the Spencer house will be at the op of your list when traveling to London. When the building was constructed in 1766 for the first Earl Spencer; whose intention was to offer it as a token of his love, for Georgiana Poyntz. The same woman he had married a year previously in complete secrecy. There has not been a single family living in this home since 1927, when at that time it became a museum for several years, recently it had been moderately re read more
            Museum of London
For those of you who are interested in history, and seeing what young men and women have done before you, to see what a beautiful land London truly is, and educate yourself all at the same time then you need to go and check out the Museum on London while you are there. For the history buff, or just their companion you will not be bored, this is not going to be a quick brisk walk through museum visit, this is something you are going want to block off a good afternoon for. These are the times and places when you will litera read more
            Buckingham Palace
Buckingham Palace is the Queen's official residence. Whoever comes to visit London and does not go to Buckingham palace needs to be strongly talked to! This is where it all happens. Where the Queen resides, and although you will not be able to see a small portion of her personal living quarters, you will be able to visit and view The State Rooms of the Palace which, are open to visitors during the Summer season of August and September. Unfortunately not everyone can visit to London during these months and if that is the c read more
            The British Museum
This is not your typical Museum; yes there are artifacts and beautiful pieces of art and history combined with wondrous stories of love, war and land. But this is the place where you are going to learn about battles and war, ad love stories. Tales of those treasures include the Rosetta Stone, the Easter Island statue, and the earliest known image of Christ. You will find a lot of Ancient Greek and Egyptian treasures including the Elgin Marbles. These are the times in history you read about in school, wrote book reports and read more
            London’s V&A
Near the Natural History Museum and Science Museum in South Kensington you are going to be able to stop and see them all in one well-planned day trip. Again this is one of those places that you are going to want to see while you are traveling through London. The V&A hold over 3000 different pieces of art, and pieces of history, and there are pieces dating back over a time from of 400 years. From 1500 to the 1900’s.
