Tower Bridge
Spanning the River Thames in the centre of London, Tower Bridge was built from 1887 to 1894. In the years since, it has become a symbol of the city.
The Bullet-shaped Building
30 St. Mary Axe—that’s the address and official name of this odd-looking building. Nicknamed the Gherkin by Londoners because of its pickled cucumber shape, the 41-story glass-and-steel skyscraper stands in the middle of The City’s busy financial district.
Shakespeare's Globe
East of Tate Modern, beyond the Millennium Bridge, is the Globe Theatre, but it’s not the Globe of Shakespeare’s days. That structure burned down in 1613. The current Globe Theatre was built in the 1990s.
