When you’re ready step into almost 1,000 years of history, head to the Tower of London. The iconic castle has had various usages over the centuries: it has served as a fortress, a prison, a royal palace, a treasury, the home of the Royal Mint… and even a menagerie!
Today, the castle remains a functioning fortress. Despite this, it is a tourist attraction, as it has been since the Elizabethan period, and is now one of the most popular attractions in the UK. A little birdy told me it’s not only because of the deep history held within its walls. The Tower is now also home to the breath-taking Crown Jewels!
The Crown Jewels is one of the key things to see at the Tower of London, and it’s included in your ticket! Queues can get quite long, but it will definitely be a highlight of your day. After all, not a lot of people can say they have seen the King’s crown up close! To beat the queue, we recommend getting to the castle early and heading to the Crown Jewels first on your visit.
There is so much to see and do at the Tower of London. During your visit, you will get to see the White Tower, the Crown Jewels, the Line of Kings, the bloody tower, the battlements, and even to meet the Yeoman Warders. We recommend setting aside half a day to be able to enjoy your visit to the fullest.
