Während  Ihrer Tour durch den Tower of London werden Sie die prächtigen Yeoman Warders oder 'Beefeaters'  treffen, die gekleidet sind wie zu Zeiten der Tudors, hören Sie die Legende  der Raben  und gruselige Geschichten  aus  der langen Geschichte des Towers. Sehen Sie den berüchtigten  Bloody Tower  wo die Prinzen ermordet wurden, Beauchamp Tower  wo Besucher  eingeritzte Inschriften der ehemaligen Gefangenen  lesen können und Traitors Gate wo die Köpfe der Glücklosen  aufgespießt wurden , die die Gefangenschaft nicht überlebten - und vieles mehr.

Sometimes taking a stroll through Central Park feels like being in a timeless romantic film. Perhaps it’s the horse-drawn carriages and the tree-lined pathways. Or perhaps it’s the fact that, well, hundreds of movies have been shot in Central Park.
