CYCLING THROUGH
LONDON
No matter where you travel, every city or town
tells a story through its fascinating landmarks,
landscapes and architecture. In London, this
is conveyed through routes such as Battersea
Park to Greenwich. For about 10 miles, you’ll
peddle along the Thames River to behold a
“who’s who” of London architecture, while
burning a few calories along the way. See
highlights such as the London Eye, the gigantic
Ferris wheel; Shakespeare’s Globe Theater,
an oak-and-thatch replica of the original; and
the Tate Modern art gallery, Britain’s national
gallery of international modern artwork.
For something a bit simpler, there’s
the Tower of London to Big Ben route, at
approximately three miles, by way of the river
and the Victoria Embankment. Check out the
Tower of London, a castle of royal history and
intrigue, ride onto Lower Thames Street and
past the Neoclassical Somerset House before
continuing along Victoria Embankment.
Before you know it, you’ll see Big Ben and the
Palace of Westminster.
