Walk Notes

A walk through the heart of tourist London - Leicester Square (bars and cinema) - Trafalger Square - St James Royal Park - Westminster Abbey - Parliament - South Bank of the Thames past London Eye, National Theatre, Globe Theatre, HMS Belfast - Tower Bridge - St Catherine's Dock - Tower of London - The City (Financial District) - Bank of England - St Paul's Cathedral - Lincoln's Inn Fields (Legal District) - Covent Garden (Opera House, and shops/bars in an old food market)

The official start of this walk is the centre of Leicester Square, but if you are meeting friends on a not sunny day, a better start might be the tube station or cafe

Ownership of the walk seems to have passed from the Jubilee Walkway Trust to Transport for London, who quitely promote it as 5 separate circular walks. Don't worry, though, both historic and modern London are both still there!

Walk Options The walk can be split in 2 by using the millenium footbridge. There is a 'Camden extension' to the British Museum
Transport

Passes many tube and train stations

Suggested start time: 10:00

Lunch and Tea
