Tower of London
Tower Hill, London  EC3N 4AB • 870-750-4466
Description:
CITY. The Tower of London draws tourists who are taking a growing interest in some of the more lurid, murderous aspects of London's history. This vast, imposing brick building has been the site of many bloody events, including the murder of future kings, incarceration of historical figures, and political beheadings. Kids love the stories told by Beefeater guides, and adults relish the Crown Jewels, although folks have to view them quickly, because visitors are hurried by to accommodate everyone. One of London's most interesting attractions, and also one of its most popular – go early. TUBE: Tower Hill
