The Shard - tallest building in Europe

The Shard is an iconic Landmark of the london skyline. It is the tallest building in the western Europe. The Shard is London's highest best view. It is London's most eagerly awaited attraction. 

We can have a 360 degree views for up to 40 miles.  

A couple of months back me and husband just happened to be near this building and we decided to check it out...


Looking up you will see the shards of glass that form the top of the skyscraper.


 This is entirely a glass building. The Shard includes Offices, restaurants, Hotels and also Residences.




For people who want to take a look at the view from the top floor there is a separate entry and separate elevator lift which takes you to the highest floors i.e floor 68-72. This might cost you about 32£ per person. 

But we decided that we can easily go to a restaurant up there and spend the same money or even less on a meal and still get to see the view of London. How cool are we hun??
So we went to a restaurant out there which was on the floor 32. And OMG the lift on the shard was super amazingly fast like a jet. In just a matter of 3 seconds we were already there, it was like magic.. Haha! 

Here you can see the astonishing view from the restaurant we went to which was on the floor 32. Posting pics just for you!!!







Very beautiful view of tower bridge




In the restaurant ..

Next time we are planning on going to this place on an evening out because obviously the view looks entirely different in the night when the whole city lights are on.  
The entire experience was lovely and joyful.  

This is without a doubt the best view in town.

London through my eyes..


Hi! my beautiful readers..
How are you all doing? Its me again... Today am gonna talk about LONDON!
I am newly married and I stay in UK with my husband! So me and my hubby often go off to London, because we are fortunate to stay very close to it. As they say London is a very beautiful place and there is so much to explore in the city that you never get bored. The place has so much to offer and I love to go there anytime.

Through this blog I wanna show you "In and Around London city". I will talk about the places we visit and some fun things to do and Life in the UK.

A couple of weeks ago me and hubby visited "THE TOWER BRIDGE", which is the trade mark of London and also the most important tourist attraction over here. People come to this one place just to have a look at the bridge and take pics.


Am gonna let the pictures do the talking!! Enjoy the pics guys.


This was our walk to the tower bridge..

Huge ship in the river.. 



On our walk, I came across a place where they had many stores to shop from and cool architecture to look at.


It was a long long walk.. but it was worth it.. The closer you get to the tower, the more awesome and BIG it looks... 




TOWER BRIDGE!!

I got this pic myself. How awesome does it look.!!! People enjoying near the river side.






Hope you all had fun watching the pics. Am gonna be back soon with yet another story to tell and some more tourist attraction. Until next time.

XOXO
