Continuation again from the previous post.After you visit the London Eye, cross the Westminster Bridge towards the Westminster tube station. Take Jubilee Line again, and head to Southbound (or probably Eastbound this time) to the next stop - London Bridge. Just to remind you, this London Bridge is not the one that you think. The other London iconic landmark is actually Tower Bridge i.e. what people in Malaysia thought it was London Bridge.
Anyway, you need to go to take London Bridge coz District and Circle line (green and yellow tube line) are not in service this weekend. Anyhow, if you exit London Bridge tibe station... you'll see the other view of London. And also the tourist site - the London Dungeon!
When you exit the station, look for sign to Tower Bridge or Hays Galleria. Take that route. And you'll pass through the Hay's Galleria, with its signature quirky pirate ship fountain. There's also shops around as well as some stores.
Head down to the end coz you need to walk by the riverbank. The walkway is called the Queen's Walk.
While you take a stroll on that path, you'll pass by the Naval ship called HMS Belfast (not that important btw, ahaks!) And right before your eyes you gonna see the Tower Bridge. Tadaaa...!
Nothing much to say, just enjoy the view. It's awesome, and make you really feel I'm in London!! :)
Enjoy the view while you take a rest on the famous Potter's Park, the green open space by the London City Hall.
And you should took a night trip here too. If you're lucky, you've gotta see the middle of the bridge is elevated, to give ways to the ship thru it. A chance not to be missed.
Okay, time to cross River Thames via the bridge. Head down the Tower of London on the left side of the bridge. What is Tower of London you ask? It's actually a prison, where some of the famous names are also being executed such as Anne Boleyn. It's also the place where the Crown Jewels is kept safe.
Walk on, and it's time to shop at the Tower Shop!
Oh, to get into the Tower you need to pay. Or if you don't want to... just go into the Tower of London 'Welcome Center' instead, and see the faux Crwon Jewels in there.
Tired? Now you need to take the path at the back of the 'castle' and go to the Tower Hill tube station. You need to take the bus to get to the next destination...
