The Tower of London

The Tower of London is a historic fortress that stands at the southeastern edge of the old city of London, commanding strategic access to the Thames and the sea. Despite its proximity to modern London, it remains a formidable and sprawling network of medieval and early modern defenses, rich with history and iconic artifacts. Visitors can explore its layered structures, guided often by colorful Yeoman Guards, and experience a tangible connection to its long and varied past.
