The Tower of London

This was one of my favourite places to visit in London. I had not realised it was so big and I ended up spending several hours exploring this landmark. I joined a talk by one of the Yeoman Wardens. It was an hour of humerous theatrics mixed with interesting facts about traitors, murderers and beheadings performed in the Tower.

I then went to see the Crown Jewels and was happy it was spring so the large queuing area wasn't required. The jewels were absolutely stunning and I found it hard to believe they were real as the security seemed low key (no bag scanners like most of the other tourist attractions). No photos were allowed unfortunately.もっと詳しく
