Short London Breaks ever welcomes the opportunity to advance the satisfying outdoors life - and

maybe a city break in the capital doesnt generally lend itself to persuasions of launching out

and taking in some clean air, but with the growth and investiture that has taken place over the last few years into the Thames 

walk way, thats just what you can do on a blessed warm day like now.

 

If you’re barely in the city for the weekend then the succeeding walk ticks lots of divers boxes - sight-seeing chances,

culinary treats, civilisation, and best of all, good on the budget!

 

If youre approaching the walk by subway then Id commend opening at either London Bridge or Borough stations.

Getting Along down of either of those steer North until you discover the the River Thames.

 

Why not set out your explorations by wandering  out onto London Bridge itself? Although it doesnt have the charm of lots of the other bridges

it does yield a wonderful place to take impressions of Tower Bridge as well as The Tower of London on the North Bank of the Thames.

 

Then aim west along the river once again you shouldnt neglect a perusal around Borough Market - a tangible

treat for all the gastronomes out there who require inspiration or just something unique to bite on.

The food market specialises in produce from humble societies and growers from round the UK - but it also is

a primary place to notice olives from Greeece, fromage from France, Ostrich from South Africa, chillies from Brazil - the number is uninterrupted.

Its a tremendous place to lift up a sandwich for later on in your walking besides.

 

Proceeding along back to the river you’ll come across some of the happiest scenes of the river from here - with the City of London

offering its best attractive side, including the Lloyds Building, the Gherkin,St Pauls, the Barbican etc etc.

 

There are a extensive range of affordable eating places along the river walk at this stage - pizza, Greek, up market burger shops also - so 

if youre in the market place for a mid-price lunch as a break this is a cracking position to choose, and you can savour the river panoramas at the same time.

Umpteen of the restaurant along here are members of the larger restaurant groups and so its worthwhile accessing out their sites

for deduction vouchers and special offers - try Pizza Express, The Real Greek, the Gourmet Burger Kitchen for instance.

 

 

Extending along the Thames Path then you’ll before long reach the rebuilt Globe Theatre on your left and its worth visiting and looking out for

the special ticket offers. They do fantastic standing tickets for the evening performances and given the architecture and 

ambiance of the theatre at around £5 it makes for a wonderful night’s entertainment even if plays arent your wonted thing.

 

Continuiung our walk along the SOuth Bank, reaching the Millenium Bridge you’re faced with a pair of alternatives.

Merely walking out onto the bridge, once more, gives some great photographic opportunities, but it also allows for you to divert up to St Pauls Cathedral and consider

Christopher Wren’s magnificence.

Back on the Southside there’s more free culture available in the form of the Tate Modern - which always has 

a central exhibit in the main hall which generally delights even the most disinterested art viewer.

 

Just the above should fill at least three hours of your time, but if youre still keen to hit the pavement more then keep along the river to the South Bank

complex - go into the Royal Festival Hall, up to the 6th floor balcony and delight in some of the best aspects of London. Dont forget to take your camera with you

and this is an afternoon when the budget wont be hit seriously at all!.
