Short London Breaks - Why Not A Long Walk Along the Thames
Short London Breaks ever welcomes the chance to promote the satisfying outdoors living - and
possibly a city holiday in the capital doesnt immediately lend itself to views of stepping out
and taking in some fresh air, but with the and investiture that has taken place over the past few years into the Thames
walk way, thats just what you can do on a blessed unclouded day like today.
If you’re simply in the metropolis for the weekend then the succeeding walk ticks lots of divers boxes - sight-seeing chances,
culinary treats, cultivation, and best of all, good on the budget!
If youre approaching the walk by London Undergorund or National Rail then Id commend leading off at either London Bridge or Borough stations.
Coming down of either of those maneuver North until you hit the river.
Why not start your walk by venturing out onto London Bridge itself? Although it doesnt have the romance of many of the bridges
it does give a key place to take exposures of Tower Bridge as well as The Tower of London on the North Bank of the Thames.
Then pointing west along the river once more you shouldnt omit a peruse around Borough Market - a concrete
treat for all the gastronomes out there who require inspiration or just something peculiar to bite on.
The market place specialises in produce from modest societies and producers from round the UK - but it also is
a marvelous place to observe olives from Greeece, cheese from France, Ostrich from South Africa, chillies from Brazil - the number is inexhaustible.
Its a wondrous place to lift up a sandwich for later on in your walking too.
Proceeding along back to the river you’ll witness some of the foremost prospects of the river from here - with the City of London
offering its fullest engaging face, including the Lloyds Building, the Gherkin,St Pauls, the Barbican etc etc.
There are a expansive range of inexpensive eateries along the river walk at this leg - pizza, Greek, up market burger shops as well - so
if youre in the market place for a mid-price lunch as a treat this is a happy spot to choose, and you can love the river prospects at the same time.
Umpteen of the restaurant on here are in the larger chains and so its a good idea downloading out their sites
for price reduction coupons and special offers - try Pizza Express, The Real Greek, the Gourmet Burger Kitchen for instance.
Remaining along the Thames Path then you’ll soon pass the rebuilt Globe Theatre on your left and its worth coming by and assessing
the special ticket offers. They do extraordinary standing tickets for the evening performances and given the architecture and
ambiance of the place at around £5 it makes for a exceptional night’s entertainment even if plays arent your wonted thing.
Continuiung our walk along the SOuth Bank, coming to the Millenium Bridge you’re confronted with a couple of choices.
Simply walking out onto the bridge, again, gives some charming photographic opportunities, but it also permits you to deviate through to St Pauls Cathedral and find
Christopher Wren’s magnificence.
Back on the Southside there’s more free culture available in the form of the Tate Modern - which always has
a central exhibit in the main hall which generally delights even the most disinterested art viewer.
Just the walk above should fill at least three hours of your morning, but if youre still keen to hit the pavement further then continue along the river to the South Bank
complex - go into the Royal Festival Hall, up to the 6th floor balcony and relish some of the best panoramas of London. Dont forget to take your camera with you
and this is an afternoon when the budget wont be hit disadvantageously at all!.
