Leisure - Attractions - London

London is a wonderful, vibrant city packed with great things to do and see. Some of the world's best known landmarks are to be found in the capital - Big Ben, The Houses of Parliament, Buckingham Palace, The Tower of London and of course, Tower Bridge.

London is also home to some of the best and most exciting museums in the world - The British Museum, and the Natural History Museum to name but two. (See Museums). London's newest attraction is the British Airways London Eye, the world's largest observation wheel. Be sure to bring your walking shoes (and umbrella!) if you're planning to stroll along one of London's many parks and gardens. The capital is full of history and has numerous statues to depict the famous parts of the city.
