View of the London skyline from the River Thames

Highlight • River

It is very nice to walk along the Thames and watch the hustle and bustle on the water and pass by the various sights

View of Tower Bridge

Highlight • Historical Site

Tower Bridge is a combined bascule and suspension bridge in London, built between 1886 and 1894. The bridge consists of two towers, tied together at the upper level by two horizontal walkways, designed to withstand the horizontal tension forces imposed by the suspended sections of the bridge on the landward sides of the towers. The bridge deck is freely accessible to both vehicles and pedestrians, whereas the bridge's twin towers, high-level walkways and Victorian engine rooms form part of the Tower Bridge Exhibition, for which there's a small admission charge.

Fun fact: I have also paddled under this bridge whilst kayaking home for Christmas a few years ago, finishing up just after the bridge and soon after diving into the nearby The Dickens Inn historic pub, situated within the lovely St Katherine’s Harbour. Highly recommended!

Hay's Galleria

Highlight • Monument

Look out for "The Navigators" inside the gallery. It was installed in 1987, when the wharf was convered into a shopping center. It's not only a sculpture but also a kinetic machine and fountain.

Inside Towerbridge, not particularly expensive and very exciting. Great view over the city. The steam engines and the mechanism that used to lift and lower the bridge are clearly explained. Compared to many entrance fees in London, it is quite affordable.

Butler's Wharf is an English historic building on the south bank of the River Thames, just east of London's Tower Bridge, now housing luxury flats and restaurants. Lying between the picturesque street Shad Thames and the Thames Path, it overlooks both the bridge and St Katharine Dock.
