EArchitectJuly 8, 2015Loved the South Bank especially around the Mondrion where there are plenty of things to do. It's also a great place for a nice long run along the River Thames.Upvoted 1 week ago
Avneesh KohliSeptember 9, 2018Perfect place to take a walk on a nice day. Take in the stunning views, street musicians, and people watch to your heart’s content.Upvoted 1 week ago- Lots to do here from walking down by the river and enjoying the view to going to one of the many cafes' or entertainment spots. Avoid 'Zen Cafe' as it's highly tourist marketed and not cheap.
When going to Waterloo get off at Embankment or Charring Cross and walk over Millennium bridge via The South Bank for great views of London

- Ashley BovanMay 13, 2013walk from Festival Hall along the banks of the Thames up to Tate Modern, cross over to St Paul's, get the tube - a nice half day
An walk here is a pleasure at any time of year. There's always something to see and do.
- Kevin McCulleyJuly 13, 2015A wonderful place for a casual stroll on a sunny day. Start at the London Eye and finish up at Tower Bridge.

Nicola StewartDecember 21, 2014Start off at Borough Market and head towards Westminster. I adore this walk, first thing I do with any friends in London
BritannicaAugust 5, 2011For centuries the riverside district was dominated by industrial plants, but bombings in World War II ruined the area. The Festival of Britain transformed South Bank a cultural hub in 1951
Fiona SmallcornOctober 26, 2011A lovely stroll from the London Eye to London Bridge. Plenty to see and places to stop to shop, eat and drink.
Check out the food market in front of Royal Festival Hall and walk along the river bank. Also, check out the Udderbelly festival.
Ali WJune 8, 2014Be careful if eating outside at restaurants here. Companion had bag snatched from Giraffe. No bag clips! Apparently happens a lot according to security guy.- Stephen McVerryJuly 17, 2012The ultimate Saturday morning walk, the South Bank is bustling with energy.
Jamie ButcherNovember 19, 2009Go for a walk down the Southbank, make sure you stop by and check out the graffiti artists at work...take some pictures of the coolest pieces.

Denise CozierMay 31, 2013Walk from Borough Market along Bankside until you reach the London Eye. There will be lots of people on this stretch if it's a bright day and tons of activities happening.
