A towering achievement
While many historical sites can be on the dry side, that’s certainly not true of the Tower of London. Join a ‘Beefeater’ on a guided tour and you’ll hear about royal history, intrigue, murder and marriage, delivered with great wit and insight – it’s a must-do. After that, wander around yourself to spot the famous ravens, centuries of royal armour, the crown jewels and the resting places of kings and queens.
Top of the dome
One of the world’s great masterpieces of architecture, Sir Christopher Wren’s work on St. Paul’s Cathedral still has the power to take your breath away. The exterior is undeniably impressive, but step inside and the Ludgate Hill crowds ebb away to be replaced by a stately hush befitting the interior. Make sure you see both the crypt and the dome.
