Small but for some reason fell on love with the tower! There is a small shop as you enter the tower! Coffee and drinks served here along with Medieval music ! Loved it!
Sole surviver of the Privy Palace within the great medieval palace of Westminster. Built to safeguard Edward III's royal treasures. Run by English heritage.
If I have to be honest, its not really worth the ticket price to go beyond the ground floor, which you can wander around for free. It is run by English Heritage though, so a worthy cause.
1365. Pretty cool.
Si tienes la London Pass, aprovecha para visitarlo. Si no, no merece la pena el coste de la entrada, excesivo para lo que ofrece.
El edificio más antiguo de Londres.
Бездарно потраченное время и деньги! Да, здание - сама история. Внимание, здесь КОГДА-ТО хранились сокровища. ))
Tem potencial pela sua história, mas não há nada para ser visto. Não vale o ingresso.
