London Tourist Attractions: A Tourist’s Jump Starter

There’s always a treat for everyone in London that is why it remains to be one of the Europe’s top tourist destinations. Reviews may vary online about each attraction but it always boils down to the fact that different people have different tastes therefore some London tourist attractions may or may not attract one but could put another in awe.

For those who like to listen to people discuss or argue, Speaker’s Corner is a must-go—there’s always the nice park to enjoy if listening is not your thing. The London Dungeon would appeal to the dark side of those who’d like to see what’s inside this waxwork museum that showcases torture in various forms. For those who’d like to view wax replicas of celebrities instead, Madame Tussaud’s is the place.

The London Eye would beckon those who enjoy Ferris wheels—this is a humongous version of that. Another modern London tourist attraction would be The O2. It’s a music venue and exhibit center in one. However if ‘traditional’ is more of the tourist’s thing, Buckingham Palace would be an attraction. The Changing of the Guard there is one of the mental pictures often associated with London but to see it, waking up early is a must.

For visual treats, the Tower Bridge looks awesome at night; you don’t need to go inside to appreciate it. There are a lot of good museums in London: The Dennis Severs House, The Imperial War Museum, The Fan Museum, Theatre Museum, Fashion and Textile Museum, Shakespeare’s Globe Exhibition, Pollock’s Toy Museum, Science Museum, Natural Museum and many others.

St. Paul’s is a must-not-miss London tourist attraction. It helped define London’s grand skyline along with St. Pancras Station. The Bank of England houses a small museum that tells of the ancient Londinium Roman city. A visit to Bow Bells will bring to life the nursery rhyme ‘Oranges and Lemons’ as St. Clements is near. There, the tourist will find a Cockney Museum. With so many London tourist attractions listed and not listed here, tourists will always have something to look forward to ass they explore—because after all, London cannot be described with just a Big Ben postcard.
