 London by the river Sep 05, 2009
a free thing to do in london is to take a walk along the thames. take the tube to london bridge tube stop, then follow the signs to the riverfront. along the river, you will enjoy views of the iconic london buildings like MI5 headquarters, st paul's cathedral and the gherkin. you will come upon the tate modern, shalespeare's globe, the national theatre, and the london eye (book online to skip queues) too, and there are pleasant places to grab a bit along there. keep going and you will end up at westminster, the famous view of parliament, and the most photographed clock tower in the world - big ben!
good option is to do the reverse , starting out from victoria tube station or westminister tube station, then end up at london bridge tube station which is next to the famous borough market. opened mon-sat for delicious eats!

Walking is always the best way to see cities, so Joe got a city map which showed how Dublin is divided by the River Liffey. On the north side of the river O'Connell Street serves as a main artery with department stores and hotels on each side. The Old Post Office, a site of violence in the political upheaval years ago, is on O'Connell Street also… There Never Was An England |

London's only lighthouse stood across the river at the Trinity Buoy Wharf. The light was no longer in service and had been primarily used for testing lights, lenses, and training personnel. The river wound through East London. Its buildings were tall and new but maintained the architectural style of old London… Touring the River Thames |

Once we got near the Thames River, we went on a river cruise. It’s free if you have purchased a ticket on the hop-on/hop-off bus tour, so we decided to take advantage of it. It was pretty neat, as we got to see the sights along the river… Day 4 in London |
