Natasha V. • March 8, 2018Stunning views of the city (free!) surrounded by excellent art.

Enzo M. • March 19, 2021Sandy bank on the South side of the Thames when there is low tide ... I would not dare to call it a beach though

Fluying ✅. • June 28, 2019The Golden Hinde (see the female deer, or hind, on the prow and stern) was Sir Francis Drake’s flagship as he circumnavigated the globe (1577-1580).

Chris H. • September 28, 2015A lovely spot of greenery near the embankment and the London Eye. Great for scenic views of the Thames and fresh air on a sunny day. It does get crowded by tourists at times.

Marçal J. • May 18, 2013Very nice playground for children under 11.

Isaac L. • March 20, 2019I walk through here every day. It needs serious cleanup and graffiti removal.

Luke B. • October 24, 2013If the crane is working the walkway can be closed for 15 minutes.

Mark J. • March 17, 2011Good selection of restaurants around here. Take a walk round as some are rather hidden away.

Cheen T. • July 28, 2017A modern reconstruction of the Globe, named "Shakespeare's Globe", opened in 1997 approximately 750 feet (230 m) from the site of the original theatre. Source: Wikipedia

Shaun @ TheTableCafe • April 3, 2012Very slowly & very carefully, look over the edge & down. There we are, just beneath you... live music every Friday & Saturday evening. (Not to mention probably the best coffee on Southwark St...)

Hong Kyu P. • March 9, 2014The city bus and river tour is a good way to get to know a bit about the city

Lewis K. • October 29, 2015Home of the Golden Hinde 2

Jacques • May 13, 2015On south London Bridge there's a 16m tall spike which most people don't see as they dash to The City for work. It is to remind us of the tarred heads on spikes that were displayed here up until 1678.

Walter T. • November 15, 2014Oxo restaurant and brasserie are one of the best place for me in London. Beautiful terrace on the River Thames, Vegan menu, class and style.
