Catford Travel Guide
London
Popular places to visit
Hyde Park
Once the private hunting grounds of a king, London's most famous park is today a place where everyone can enjoy gardens, monuments and music performances.
Tower Bridge
With its Gothic towers and elegant walkways, Tower Bridge is unlike any other – and a fitting gateway for ships sailing up the Thames.
Buckingham Palace
This is a place adorned with tradition, spectacle and moments of national joy – and a palace that opens its doors during the summer months.
London Eye
London's cityscape was made to be peered at from above – and the London Eye does that for you in style, with its grand slow circular trip into the city's sky.
O2 Arena
Created as the focal point of Britain’s millennium celebrations, today this architectural wonder offers a world of entertainment under one enormous roof.
Piccadilly Circus
Piccadilly Circus is where the lights are bright, the traffic is busy, where cupid rules and the West End starts – or is it?
