World famous Christopher Wren designed. survived the Blitz and just so iconic. Great day out is to catch the central line from Bethnal Green a few stops to visit it, walk across the Thames via the Millenium bridge (wobbly bridge to us locals) and visit the Tate Modern or Shakespeare Globe on the South Bank. Then mosey down the South Bank past the buskers and fairs towards the London Eye. Then take a 'flight' on it and view our great city from the air.
