London is one of the biggest cities in Europe, and as such,
it offers numerous exciting and fun things to do. However, because of the
overabundance of possible activities, it is hard to pick the truly unique ones
which will show you the most of London’s lifestyle. Here are some fun and
unconventional tourist destinations.
The London Aquarium
If you are interested in seeing many different varieties of
fish and sea life, the London aquarium is for you. There, you can see exotic
fish such as sharks, piranhas, stingrays and many others. Furthermore, rather
than just sitting there and staring at the sea creatures through a glass panel,
you can take one of the available floating platform walks. For example, taking
a stroll over the Shark Walk will let you experience the feeling of having a
living shark several inches of glass underneath you. Also, in the aquarium, you
can visit the Rainforests of the World that is filled with exotic vegetation,
tropical scenery and foreign wildlife.
Pub Crawl
For those who don’t know, a pub crawl involves touring
several pubs and having drinks in each one. Because London has so many good
pubs, it offers all tourists the opportunity to go on the most memorable London pub crawl where they can
experience a big part of the local culture. There are many organized crawls you
can choose from, and if you do that in time, you can find one that is quite
cheap, and yet, very fun. However, students benefit most from what London has
to offer. As a student, you can party all night long with cheap drinks and live
music. Student nights in London are never dull because of the many amazing
people you can meet. Therefore, foreigners should not be discouraged even if
they don’t know anyone- people are friendly and ready for a good party.
Monument Scaling
The Monument was built by Sir Christopher Wren in 1667 after
the Great Fire of London to show that the city will rise again. Indeed, the
monument, which is 61 metres high, offers the opportunity to look at the
amazing London landscape. However, here is the catch- there is no lift. You
have to go up the 311 spiral steps to the top, however, there is no place to
pause or rest. At least when you reach the top, you will receive a certificate
that you can show off. The climb and the scenery offer a unique experience that
you won’t forget.
