Through The Shard
Walk along the Thames, starting from the Tower of London, crossing the Tower Bridge with stunning panoramic views of London. Just a few steps further away you can find the City Hall, another beautiful building and of course The Shard - an emblematic 72-storey skyscraper. Up next is Borough Market, one of the largest and oldest food markets in the city. Finally, visit the Golden Hinde and then Shakespeare's Globe, a reconstruction of the Globe Theatre, an Elizabethan playhouse for which William Shakespeare wrote his plays.
