Monument Tower

Today I came across a great article titled "15 Unique things to do in London (that you won't find on Trip Advisor)". I've read loads of these before, but this one was really good!

Since I moved to London all I wanted to do was get above the city and have a 'birds eye' view over the city. To feel like I could breathe I guess, get above the craziness for a minute. It's something I've always I've been able to do at home. I think it also gives one a sense of direction when you can see it all laid out.

Anyway, a part from paying a fortune for the Shard, London Eye and many others I couldn't find a cheap way to get up there, until today. Thanks to my new guide I discovered that there is a statue in monument that is dedicated to the poor souls who died in the London Fire. It's located just down from where the fire originally broke out.

For Ł5 you can climb the 311 stairs to the top and get a 360-degree view across London. Perfect timing, by sheer accident, meant that I got to watch the sun set over this great city. As Dan once told me, there is nothing more special then being able to watch the sunrise and set, the day starts and ends.
