Top Things To Do In London England - listings 61to 70
61 (81) Tate Britain (formerly the Tate Gallery)
British art from the 16th century to present day. Tate Britain used to
be known as the Tate Gallery.
62 (82) Notting Hill Carnival
A moving, vibrating, loud, colourful face(s) of modern Britain. Who said
the English don't know how to have a good time.
63 (24) Albert Hall
Albert Hall is all about great sing along karaoke, last night at the
proms, classical spectaculars and flag waving fun.
This beautiful old hall has been the scene of much jollyment and song
since 1066 - well maybe not that long.
When history, architecture and great music combine it is bound to be
special.
64 (110) City Hall
A stunning new building near Tower Bridge on the south bank. Once described
as a "glass testicle" by ex-major Ken Livingstone.
City Hall's futuristic look leaves you with the impression that London
is doing all right. It should be a good Olympics.
65 Richmond Bambi
Excluding London Zoo and wildlife parks, London isn’t the place
to see wild animals beyond the size of a fox (London has foxes, driven
in by the hunters one assumes) but you can expect to see deer in Richmond
Park.
66 (107) Science Museum
From steam engines to spacecraft the hardware on display here makes the
average 10 year old go weak at the knees even after his or her 30th birthday.
67 (100) The Millennium Dome now the rebadged ‘The O2”
The controversial and unloved Dome is unique and an amazingly feat of
engineering. The Dome is still being developed and will probably end up
being one of London's top attractions.
68 (54) The London Marathon
A breathtaking experience for the competitors this is a golden opportunity
to yell encouragement, have some fun and wonder if maybe, perhaps, you
should get abit more exercise. It is really cool if you can do all that
eating a hamburger, kebab or chips.
69 (79) Tour Wimbledon
This memorable behind-the-scenes look at Wimbledon includes No.1 Court,
the Picnic Terraces and Water Gardens and fantastic views across London.
70 (80) Leeds Castle
Surprising no where near Leeds, Leeds castle is a great place to visit
or as part of a trip to or from the south coast.
Set on two islands Leeds Castle, in the heart of Kent, has been home
to royalty and the associated ruling class for centuries.
