Bankside Pier is just outside The Globe Theatre, the replica of the Elizabethan theatre where Shakespeare’s plays were first staged. And next door is the decommissioned Bankside power station which is now home to the Tate Modern art gallery – be sure to visit the Viewing Level on the top floor of this building: it’s free and you’ll get amazing views of the city. You could also stretch your legs by walking over the Millennium Bridge which leads to St Paul’s Cathedral, one of the most famous outlines on the London skyline.
