Tower of London One of the most famous buildings in the world, the Tower of London was constructed in the 11th century - almost a 1,000 years ago and has been witness to countless significant events in the development of Britain's now democratic monarchy. During your tour of the Tower of London you will meet the magnificent Yeoman Warders or 'Beefeaters', clad as they were in Tudor times, hear the legend of the ravens and spine chilling tales from the Tower's long history. See the infamous Bloody Tower where the Princes were murdered, Beauchamp Tower where visitors can read carved inscriptions of past prisoners and Traitors Gate where those unlucky enough not to survive imprisonment had their heads impaled - and much more. We sell at less than the gate price, which gives you access to all the Towers and Attractions, as well as the unique Gift Shops, the historic New Armouries Restaurant, Tower Cafe and Kiosk. Your Tower ticket also includes entry to the Crown Jewels. Westminster Abbey Glorious Architecture This magnificent gothic construct is a sight to behold and the incredible stained glass is some of the most impressive in the UK. Coronation Chair Created for King Edward I in 1296, the chair has been the seat for the crowning of every monarch since 1308, including Queen Victoria and our current reigning Queen, HRH Elizabeth II. It is the oldest piece of furniture in the UK that is still used for its original intention. Poets’ Corner The literary corner of the Abbey is named due to the large amount of poets and writers buried there, including Geoffrey Chaucer, Charles Dickens, Rudyard Kipling and Thomas Hardy, as well as many memorial stones and busts dedicated to the likes of Shakespeare and loved Scottish poet Robert Burns. Kings and Queens Westminster Abbey has been the coronation church since 1066 and seventeen monarchs are buried there. The Abbey was also the place where William and Kate tied the knot in 2011. Tower Bridge Exhibition Tower Bridge Unveils New GLASS FLOOR Across High-Level Walkways Launched in the West Walkway today, the glass floor offers visitors a never-seen-before view of London life, from 42 metres above the River Thames. Look down to spy road and pedestrian life whizzing over the Bridge while river vessels sail under it – and plan your visit in advance for the truly magical experience of the bascules being raised beneath your feet. The glass floor measures 11 metres long by 1.8 metres wide and comprises of six panels weighing 530 kilograms each. It is made up of five thick layers and can hold the equivalent weight of an elephant and two taxis! The installation took a 20-strong team to construct it over a six week period. The Walkways also offer stunning panoramic views of London while each of the 20 bridges featured in our popular and refreshed 'New Great Bridges of the World' display showcase a breath-taking feat of engineering. After learning about the history of the Bridge through animations and displays in the Towers, continue to the Victorian Engine Rooms for the beautifully maintained steam engines that were once used to power the bridge lifts. Over 100 years ago, the Victorians built a bridge that has become one of London's most famous landmarks. High level walkways were built to allow people to cross the Thames whilst the Bridge was lifted to let tall ships sail past - Tower Bridge Today these Walkways act as viewing galleries, giving visitors the most spectacular views across an ever changing London skyline. Walkways & Exhibition: Visitors enter Tower Bridge Exhibition via the North Tower. They are then transported by lift to the top of the Tower (47 metres above the Thames) where they have a unique opportunity to see the Bridge’s steel skeleton from within. A short film explains the history and provenance of the Bridge and then there is the chance to admire the spectacular views – from both covered Walkways. On the east Walkway there are fantastic views of the Docklands and from the west Walkway you can see the new GLA building, the Tower of London, St Paul’s, the city, the Pool of London and Big Ben and the London Eye in the distance. Interactive computerised kiosks and graphic panels explain the significance of the views to visitors, as well as providing more information on the history and building of the Bridge. The interactive material and graphic panels are written in seven languages and an audio loop for the hard of hearing is also in place for the video show. There is another film to view in the South Tower before descending for the short walk to the historical Engine Rooms, included in your ticket price. Victorian Engine Rooms: These provide a fascinating insight into late 19th century engineering. Installed for the completion of Tower Bridge in 1894, these huge, and beautifully maintained, coal-driven engines were used to power the thousands of bascule Bridge lifts performed until 1976. Although lifts are now operated by electricity, the original steam engines are still in place. The Engine Rooms give visitors a chance to experiment with models demonstrating the technology behind the Bridge. There are also some amazing photographs of Tower BridgeTthroughout its lifetime – including a revealing picture of the heavy steel structure of the Bridge as the stone cladding was installed over it.
Con el Tour The Northside aprenderá aspectos de la historia de Dublín y sus leyendas más escalofriantes. Entre estas destacan: La historia de Lord Norbury, conocido por ser el infame y sádico “Juez Colgante” que presidió el juicio de Robert Emmet, un patriota irlandés que lucho por la emancipación de Irlanda. Lord Norbury fue odiado por el pueblo irlandés en vida y en la muerte regresó para continuar un reinado de terror. La leyenda de Scaldbrother, el infame ladrón medieval cuyo tesoro enterrado aún puede yacer en un laberinto de túneles debajo de Smithfield. La fábula sobre el mendigo apuesto y deforme Billy Davis, o “Billy the Bowl”, aterrorizó las calles del suburbio Grangegorman en el siglo XVIII. Para los más valientes el tour les guía por Hendrick Street, donde en el pasado habían dos de las casas más embrujadas de Dublín. Entre estas dos casas Hendrick Street era hogar de más de seis fantasmas diferentes. En la década de 1960 estas casas fueron derribadas, pero ¿y los fantasmas? ¿Y qué hay del hospital embrujado? Los fantasmas de las enfermeras han sido vistos durante años por toda la manzana ¿Podrían ser la razón por la que las sillas de las oficinas del edificio adyacente giran por sí mismas? ¿O por lo que los juguetes electrónicos se encienden y apagan solos? Además, el tour se aventura en el parque Croppies Acre. Este lugar fue abandonado durante muchos años, y en el siglo XX fue utilizado como campo de fútbol. La parte sorprendente de este lugar es que durante la rebelión de 1798 el parque se utilizó como fosa común para los cientos de rebeldes ejecutados. ¡Los espíritus que viven en esta zona muchas veces intentar comunicarse! La atracción considerada como la más macabra de Irlanda es la Iglesia de Saint Michan, que sirvió de inspiración para el joven Bram Stoker, nativo de Clontraf y autor de Drácula. Otra parada del tour es la pared donde, en el siglo XX, hubo una aparición de la Virgen María. Miles de transeúntes afirman haber visto dicha imagen ¿Puedes? Testimonios: “Fue uno de los mejores tours de fantasmas en los que he estado. Todo el grupo sintió que la temperatura bajada cuando salíamos de la Abadía de Saint Mary. Fue realmente extraño.” Alison, San Francisco, California “Me gustó que se tomaran el tema en serio. Los lugares del tour están realmente embrujados, y las personas sensibles del tour definitivamente parecían estar experimentando algo. Hendrick Street fue interesante.” Paul, Dallas, Texas “Lo que me gustó del Tour The Northside es cuán comunes son los lugares: tiendas, museos y parques que la gente usa todos los días sin darse cuenta de lo que sucedió allí. Nunca he sido realmente creyente, pero juro que vi a alguien caminando por el Croppies Acre, y en mis fotografías salen algunas cosas realmente raras.” Sarah, Edimburgo, Escocia “¡Muchas gracias! ¡Vivo en Hendrick Street, y después de su tour, creo que tendré que mudarme!” Ciaran, Dublín
