Short London Breaks - Value Budget Days Out
Short London Breaks perpetually welcomes the opportunity to press the rosy outdoors life - and
maybe a city holiday in the capital doesnt immediately lend itself to thoughts of walking out
and taking in some pure air, but with the growth and investment that has taken place over the recent few years into the Thames
walk way, thats just what you can do on a rosy fresh day like now.
If you’re just in the metropolis for the weekend then the ensuing walk ticks lots of extraordinary boxes - sight-seeing chances,
culinary treats, cultivation, and best of all, easy on the budget!
If youre approaching the walk by underground then Id commend starting out at either London Bridge or Borough stations.
Coming down of either of those pass North tll you arrive at the The Thames.
Why not start your walk by adventuring out onto London Bridge itself? Although it doesnt have the charm of lots of the bridges
it does give a superb place to take scenes of Tower Bridge as well as The Tower of London on the North Bank of the Thames.
Then manoeuvring west besides the river once more you shouldnt miss a peruse around Borough Market - a true
treat for all the gourmets out there who need divine guidance or just something unique to snack on.
The market specialises in goods from moderate parties and growers from round the UK - but it also is
a phenomenal place to get olives from Greeece, cheese from France, Ostrich from South Africa, chillies from Brazil - the list is limitless.
Its a wonderful place to discover a sandwich for later on in your walk too.
Extending along back to the river you’ll discover some of the optimum surveys of the river from here - with the City of London
offering its happiest enthralling side, including the Lloyds Building, the Gherkin,St Pauls, the Barbican etc etc.
There are a host of inexpensive eating houses along the river walk at this leg - pizza, Greek, up market burger stores as well - so
if youre in the market for a mid-price repast as a treat this is a advantageous position to choose, and you can relish the river panoramas at the same time.
Umpteen of the restaurant on here are part of the larger restaurant groups and so its worth checking out their websites
for discount rate coupons and budget offers - try Pizza Express, The Real Greek, the Gourmet Burger Kitchen for instance.
Staying along the Thames Path then you’ll soon meet the rebuilt Globe Theatre on your left and its worth dropping in and looking out for
the special . They do super standing tickets for the evening performances and given the architecture and
atmosphere of the venue at around £5 it makes for a great night’s entertainment even if plays arent your usual thing.
Continuiung our walk along the SOuth Bank, on reaching the Millenium Bridge you’re faced with a pair of alternatives.
Merely walking out onto the bridge, again, gives some fabulous photographic chances, but it also permits you to deviate up to St Pauls Cathedral and meet
Christopher Wren’s creation.
Back on the Southside there’s more free culture available in the form of the Tate Modern - which always has
a central exhibit in the main hall which generally delights even the most disinterested art viewer.
Just the above should fill at least three hours of your afternoon, but if youre still keen to hit the pavement further then keep along the river to the South Bank
complex - go into the Royal Festival Hall, up to the 6th floor balcony and revel in some of the best sights of London. Dont forget to take your camera with you
and this is an afternoon when the budget wont be hit badly at all!.
