"If your dark side craves to walk in the footsteps of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn, head to the Tower of London. Steeped in over 1,000 years of history, this fortified castle is a great place for those hoping to learn more about the city’s royal history. Located along the River Thames, connected via Tower Bridge, the Tower of London is a UNESCO World Heritage site brimming with interesting tales. To hear all about the tower’s gruesome past, be sure to join a free guided tour with the knowledgeable Yeoman Wardens. Tours run every 30 minutes from the main entrance and are available to all ticket holders. While the castle offers many things to see and do, the star attraction has to be the Crown Jewels. Protected by the Queen’s guard, this world-renowned collection includes royal diamonds, gemstones, precious jewelry, and significant religious artifacts that have been part of the British Monarchy for centuries. You may even recognize some of the items as they are still worn by the Royal family during special occasions and national ceremonies." - MATADOR_NETWORK
