    March 14, 2022 /

    Like most destinations in the northern hemisphere, June is one of the best times to visit London. Long hours of daylight and warm weather make even the stodgiest-feeling Londoners crack a smile and soak up the sun – in fact, it kind of kills some pub conversations when the weather is so nice that there's nothing to complain about!

    The Royal Observatory Greenwich is one of the world’s top historic astronomy destinations. And after an extended closure, they are re-welcoming guests from April 1st, 2022. The Royal Observatory Greenwich is a popular tourist attraction in London, but most people who visit don’t necessarily care about (or know about) the astronomical importance of the site; they typically make a short visit as part of a Greenwich day trip and call it good...

    There are many defining characteristics and iconic landmarks in London; one of the most important is part of the reason that London exists at all: the Romans settled on the northern banks of the River Thames and established Londinium in 43 AD in part because the waterway provided access to the continent for trade and commerce; the river has remained an important part of London's economic success ever since...

    The 7 Gates of London: Roman Routes & Medieval Modifications

    London is full of historic gems: blue plaques mark important residences, building cornerstones have dates from centuries past, and street names harken back to the times when those streets peddled those wares – like Shoulder of Mutton Alley, Wardrobe Place, or Pudding Lane. Some of London's history is a bit harder to uncover, as I've discovered through my fascination with the London Wall and Roman history in London...

    London is full of must-see sights and places. There's Big Ben (the Elizabethan Tower) and the Houses of Parliament, which are finally free of their scaffolding after several years. There's also the London Eye nearby, St. Paul's Cathedral further down the river, and, of course, the iconic Tower Bridge. Not to be confused with nearby London Bridge (a rather plain crossing that's more function than fancy), Tower Bridge is an architectural marvel, and there are some great views of Tower Bridge from all over the surrounding area...

While most people will fly into London Heathrow International Airport, you might find flight deals that take you into other London area airports – commonly Gatwick and Stansted. Add on top that if you extend your trip by visiting another part of Europe, you might fly in or out of even other London airports (there are six in all!)...
