The London Eye
Enjoy fantastic views of London city from the top of this 450 feet high world's largest observation wheel.

It was built as part of the UK's Millennium Celebration and has turned into one of London's most visited attractions. Relax and look around while it takes a slow, elegant thirty-minute rise, providing great views of London by day and spectacular views by night. Its observation cars seat 25 and the ride is a great way to "see" London from a new perspective.

The Imperial War Museum
This impressive museum has a number of permanent galleries focused on the First and Second World War, as well as its Large Exhibits Gallery where samples from its weapons and vehicles collections are displayed.
