The Best Places to Visit in London

Written by Abbas Hussain


London is a diverse and exciting city with so much to see and discover. Whilst visiting this amazing city you should of course visit the Buckingham Palace, the Tower of London, various theatres, clubs and the like. There are many more places to visit which most tourists often miss. Here is a list of some of the best places you should never miss when in London.



Buckingham Palace
This is the home of the Queen of London. The palace is usually open to the public in the months of August and September when the queen is away at Balmorals in Scotland. Most visitors come to this place to watch the Ceremonial Changing of the Guard that takes place at 11:30 am all year round. Other attractions in the palace include the Royal Mews, where the glass royal wedding coach and the gold coronation coach are on display.
The Tower of London
This is actually a castle with more than a dozen towers. The tower is arguably the most famous tourist destination site where the prince Edward V and his younger brother were murdered. There are so many things to see at the tower. Some sights you should not miss are the Traitor’s Gate – where new prisoners passed if approaching by boat and the Tower of Green Scaffold – where seven people, amongst them two wives of Henry VII, were beheaded.
