If you are not rich enough to explore London from the window of helicopter, try one of several observation decks. Progress forges ahead: every era allowed a person to climb higher and higher to enjoy views of the River Thames.
One of the classic places is St Paul's Cathedral. Visitors of the Golden Gallery, encircling the dome, get one of the best panoramas of the British capital. Religious building is located in the very heart of the city, so the only thing you can't see from above is the cathedral itself. But you can see the giant wheel London Eye (in the upper left corner of the picture), which is another view point.
London Eye – in the upper left corner
London Eye lifts visitors as much as 135 meters – it's like climbing to the roof of a 40-storey building. The half-hour "flight" costs €37, but the received impressions and taken photos will be priceless. The wheel was built in the late XX century right in front of the Palace of Westminster and the Tower of Elizabeth, also known as Big Ben.
Finally, let's go to the highest skyscraper in the European Union called The Shard, to a height of 69 and 72 floors to see not only the whole of London, but also its suburbs. By the way, if you look down you'll see St Paul's Cathedral. You can wave to those who've decided to explore the city from its dome.
Walking is a good alternative which allows to enjoy the architecture at a leisurely pace. To those who are in love with this city we offer a catalog of real estate in London, where one can easily find a house or apartment.
