Short London Breaks forever welcomes the opportunity to elevate the healthy outdoors life – and

mayhap a city holiday in the capital doesnt generally lend itself to views of walking out

and taking in some clear air, but with the  and investment that has taken place over the past few years into the Thames 

walk way, thats just what you can do on a promising bracing day like now.

If you’re just in the city for the weekend then the following walk ticks lots of diverse boxes – sight-seeing opportunities,

culinary delicacies, civilisation, and best of all, easy on the budget!

If youre approaching the walk by tube then Id suggest setting off at either London Bridge or Borough stations.

Getting Along out of either of those maneuver North until you discover the the River Thames.

Why not set about your explorations by embarking out onto London Bridge itself? Although it doesnt have the romance of many of the other bridges

it does give a superb place to take pictures of Tower Bridge as well as The Tower of London on the North Bank of the Thames.

Then maneuvering west besides the river again you shouldnt miss a wander around Borough Market – a real

treat for all the gourmets out there who want inspiration or just something uncommon to bite on.

The marketplace specialises in goods from modest societies and manufacturers from round the UK – but it also is

a wondrous place to find out olives from Greeece, cheese from France, Ostrich from South Africa, chillies from Brazil – the listing is never-ending.

Its a key place to call for a sandwich for later on in your walk besides.

Extending along back to the river you’ll witness some of the greatest perspectives of the river from here – with the City of London

offering its strongest captivating side, including the Lloyds Building, the Gherkin,St Pauls, the Barbican etc etc.

There are a extensive range of inexpensive restaurants along the river walk at this point – pizza, Greek, up market burger stores too – so 

if youre in the market place for a mid-price meal as a treat this is a cracking site to choose, and you can relish the river scenes at the same time.

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

for discount rate coupons and special offers – try Pizza Express, The Real Greek, the Gourmet Burger Kitchen for instance.

Keeping along the Thames Path then you’ll shortly come to the rebuilt Globe Theatre on your left and its worth visiting and checking out

the special deals. They do marvelous standing tickets for the evening performances and given the architecture and 

atmosphere of the theatre at around £5 it makes for a memorable night’s amusement even if plays arent your customary thing.

Continuiung our amble along the SOuth Bank, reaching the Millenium Bridge you’re fronted with a couple of options.

Just walking out onto the bridge, once more, gives some smashing photo chances, but it also permits you to hive off over to St Pauls Cathedral and discover

Christopher Wren’s masterpiece.

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 outline should fill at least three hours of your morning, but if youre still keen to hit the pavement more then continue along the river to the South Bank

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

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