  • Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide © 2004 | We go to London to check out the new - the Millennium Bridge and the British Museum's Great Court, and admire the old - well-wrapped mummies and a rare Leonardo. After bantering with Beefeaters at the Tower of London, we do some riverside beachcombing. Strolling the trendy South Bank of the Thames takes us from the Tate Modern to the dizzying London Eye. #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope #london

    About Tate Modern - I was on the river cruise ship and as we approached Tate Modern, the cruise commentator said: "If you've seen modern art, you'll know why it's free..."

      @@@daubreyjaneweirdsley, the negative connotation associated with Philistines likely derives from the fact that the Israelites under King David often feuded with the Philistines. simply because the Torah is written from the perspective of adversaries of the Philistines does not make them "uncultured." I fully understand that people refer to Philistines to mean someone primitive, but I still think it unwise to refer to entire populations as less than, simply because their version of history was not written down and widely distributed.

    Mr. Steve
    Hello
    I would like to congratulate you for the efforts you have exerted to make your videos transcend time. Despite the fact that a large number of these videos had been recorded many years ago , their contents seem as if they were done very recently. This is an aspect of creativity.
    I enjoy watching them . Really they added authentic , and tangible knowledge to my education.
    Thanks a lot .

My eldest son and I are the only ones still living in London, have seen it change so much over the years etc etc .. I too will now probably end my days here though I have lived in other parts of the U.K. off and on I am back home now, have been for quite a number of years .....

      These comment from friends, family already there can’t be exaggerated or an inflamed statement, when they themselves warn of how terrible it actually is now.

I have been reading and researching British history for over 25 years and it was/is my dream to tour England...maybe do an archaeological dig. Then I went through the fires in Northern California. I don't think I'll be able to go.

      Oh you must go, even if it is just for a week. I would recommend two weeks though. There is so much to see. I'm a Londoner, now living in Ireland. It is a fantastic City. I was born and brought up in Waterloo, Westminster Bridge was 1 minute away from our block of Flats. In the Summer you could hear Big Ben sometimes, with the windows open. The South Bank featured in this video was my local walk. It is an expensive City, but there is so much you can do for free ; Parks, Museums, Churches, Riverside walks, Art Galleries, Markets. An Air B n B would probably work out cheaper than a Hotel. Pub Food is good value. It's do able. x

    Hi Rick, I wish that King Charles would decree that the "eye" be torn down. It's a blight on the London skyline! Looks like a carnival ride.

    • @Magic_beans_
      @Magic_beans_ 8 месяцев назад

      And from the visitor’s side, it’s really a question of whether you want to say you rode the London Eye. The experience itself is just okay, it’s about $35 and you’re in a glass pod with 20 other people, taking 30 minutes for a single go-round.
      There are so many other great viewpoints. The Sky Garden is free, as are the Tate Modern and a hill near the Greenwich Observatory. If you don’t mind buying a round of drinks, you could go to Seabird at the Hoxton hotel or the Sky Lounge in the Shard. Two drinks will cost about the same as riding the Eye, but it’s a nice little perk.
