Hi Friends,

According to Underground map, London has been divided into 6 different zone and city center  is situated in zone 1. Many travelers would like to experience the viewpoint of capital city from the top and of course, you can view this great capital city from the summit point via boarding to the British Airway’s London eye.

London Eye is the tallest Ferris Wheel in Europe located near the River Thames. On 9 March 2010, this place has just celebrated its 10th birthday. Also, in June 2008, it has been announced that more than 30 million travelers have already enjoyed riding this wheel (Of course, I’m one of them).  This Wheel has been build by the British Airway with approximately 135 meters high as it is the place that currently deemed to be one of symbol of London apart from Big Ben and Westminster that travellers can’t miss when visiting London.

How to go there?

The easiest way to visit London eye is by using the Underground Train and stop by Waterloo station, then, you will see this tallest Ferris Wheel in Europe.

Ticket Price

The ticket price for boarding this Farris Wheel is affordable if compared to the great London scenery that you will see as the price is 18.50 GBP for adult and 9.50 GBP for children (ages 4-15).

After Boarding London Eye, you will see the scenery of the River Thames together with the Big Ben, Westminster, Tower of London, Tower Bridge and many interesting spot of London from this wheel and I guarantee that you will enjoy taking tons of photo while boarding the London Eye.

In my opinion, if you have a chance to visit this capital city of England, the London Eye is the place that you can’t miss because if you’re not boarding this British Airway Ferris Wheel, it shall be deemed that you’ve never visit the capital city of England.

See Wonderful Street Show at Covent Garden London

Hello friends,

Welcome to the year 2011,

London is one of the most expensive cities in the world. Of course, travellers would like to shopping at the Oxford Street and see great Theater performance like the Phatom of Opera, the Lion King etc. But, in order to shopping and seeing the show in London, you may have to spend high budget. Therefore, today i would like to recommend to you one place that you can enjoy both entertainment and shopping at the same time without spending more budget as this place is called "Covent Garden".

Covent Garden is situated at the city center of London as this place incorporated with 13 theatres with famous show like the Phantom of Opera and The Lion King also more than 60 pubs and bars are avaible for hang out. However, the most eminent show available in Covent Garden is known as "Street Performance" as you will enjoy lovely and incredible show from many types of performers whether art or music with free of charge. You will see the Covent Garden's street performance starting from the London Underground Station to the old market where many artistic work are sold with affordable price.

The wonderful street performance includes for instance acoustic guitar solos, magician, violin solo. The most favorite street performance show in my opinion is the "Living Statues" because sometime you may not notice that the statue is, in fact, human until you walk in front of such statues which make many tourists enjoyable and if you enjoy the show, you should award the performers some GBP.

The shopping shop in Covent Garden combined with the brand name shop and old market shopping center which you can buy t-shirt, bags, artistic work and many more items with affordable price. In my opinion, Covent Garden is one of interesting spot in London that you can't miss when visiting this expensive wonderful capital city of United Kingdom.

-The easiest way to visit this place is by London Underground via "Picadilly Line" and stop at Covent Garden Station.

Feeling the Taste of Middle Age at the Tower of London

Travelling in London is one of the great experience in your life because there're many interesting places that you can't miss. Today i'm gonna bring you back to the middle age by visiting the place called "Tower of London"

If talking about the Tower of London, many travellers may known this place as the most haunted place in England and it is the place where you can see the world renowned Crown Jewels.  This place is where the most famous historical icons of England had been imprisoned and executed including the Duke of Norfolk, Katherine Howard, Anne Boleyn and William Wollace. You can come to this place by using the tube as this place is situated near Tower Hill station. Tower of London is open daily from 9.30 -17.30 as the ticket price are £18.70 for adult and £10.45 for children age under 16.

This place introduced the brief history of England from the middle age to present day as many precious royal properties of the United Kingdom are displayed in this place, unfortunately, they do not allow travellers to take photo for the Crown Jewels but the guide book also displayed the image of the Crown Jewels. Visiting this place make me feel like i'm back in the middle age of England which is great feeling for travellers who like historical story.

In my opinion, i think the Tower of London is suitable for travellers who like to learn the history of England, however, if you're usually sleep in the history class, i think you should avoid this place and plan to visit other interesting place of London

Thank for reading my post. See You Then!

 

Taste of Cantonese Roast Duck in London "Four Sesons Restaurant"

Welcome to my new blog everybody as this blog is all about London interesting spot & hidden place.

This is my first post and i'm going to tell you about one of the most favorite restaurant for travellers who want to taste the legendary roast duck known as the best roast duck in London. This restaurant called "Four Seasons Restaurant". My friends told me that if you have a chance to visit London, you shouldn't miss the taste of Four Seasons' roast duck. The restaurant is situated in Baywatch area of London as its best known about the longest queues because Four Seasons served only the best roast duck in London everyday.

You may wonder what make Four Seasons Roast Duck different from other restaurant in London. First of all, the roast duck is cantonese style which generally you may find this kind of roast duck in Hong Kong and i think that its size is really big and they serves roast duck together with its unique delicious chili source. The taste of the roast duck is good as it should be the best roast duck in London as everybody recommended, however, in my opinion, the general cantonese roast duck in Hong Kong  is still the best for me if compared. Moreover, the think that i want to complain is its awful service as it may because of many customers waiting for the long queue and the price is quite expensive for Asian travellers like me. I would recommend that if you have a chance to visit London and have more time and more money to spend, you should come to Four Seasons restaurant and taste the best roast duck in London. However, if you plan to save your budget for traveling London, you should avoid this restaurant and spend your money for other interesting place in London.

Thank you for reading my post. See You Then Bye!
