Westminster Bridge

★ 4.6 · 11,646 reviews

Step onto Westminster Bridge, London's classic green-painted crossing over the Thames. Snap that iconic view of Big Ben and Parliament on one bank with the London Eye slowly turning on the other.

✨

Reasons to go

Opened in 1862 and painted the same green as the House of Commons benches nearby.
Regarded as offering London's best photo angle on the Houses of Parliament and Elizabeth Tower with the London Eye across the river.

Garden Museum

★ 4.3 · 1,435 reviews

Step into the Garden Museum, a boutique gem tucked inside a former medieval church beside Lambeth Palace. Wander exhibits on the tools and art of British gardening, stroll the tranquil knot garden in the old churchyard, then linger over lunch at the on-site restaurant.

✨

Reasons to go

Housed in the former St Mary-at-Lambeth church, repurposed rather than demolished
The historic churchyard has been transformed into a knot garden
Dedicated to the tools, art and social history of British gardening, a niche subject for a museum
