London is fun place to go. It has a lot of top attractions, a city that has Buckingham Palace, Horse Guards, Tower of London, Tower Bridge (London Bridge), Trafalgar Square, Soho, Hyde Park ...

The Buckingham Palace is the Queen's official residence. The changing guards is one of the most familiar ceremonies that the visitors love to observe. It starts at 11:30am. During the autumn and winter time, the guard mounting takes place on the odd dates.


It starts from the Hourse Guards, and will ride up the  'The Mall' (name of the street) up to the Palace and then return.

I never see a castle before, so going to The Tower of London is the closest I can get. I know if I want to see some big and historic ones, I need to take a whole day trip to see one.

The Tower Bridge (London Bridge) sits beautifully over the Thames river since 1894. If you have time, walk up to the bridge and go for the bridge exhibition where you can enjoy breath-taking views from the walkways of the bridge.

The other section of the Thames river that I liked very much was where the Westminster Bridge located. You have to take the ride to the London Eye Ferris wheel.

At dusk, viewing the river and it's surrounding is gorgeous. To me, it was always great to have a bird eye view of the city and the Thames.
Spent a day trip to the  Cambridge or Oxford Universities was a real treat. I loved to see those historic buildings with distinguished architectures. The campus, parks, and the college town were all fun to visit.
