Battersea Power Station
Battersea Power Station, Circus Road West, London SW11 8DD

Cutty Sark
King William Walk, Greenwich, London SE10 9HT
The Cutty Sark is the last surviving tea clipper — the Formula One cars of the Victorian shipping world — and she's been lifted out of the water and suspended in a glass case so you can walk underneath her copper-clad hull and appreciate the engineering that made her the fastest ship in the world.

Gallery Road, Dulwich, London SE21 7AD
Dulwich Picture Gallery is the oldest purpose-built public art gallery in the world, and it's hiding in a leafy south London suburb where most Londoners have never been.
Greenwich (Royal Observatory & Prime Meridian)
Blackheath Ave, London SE10 8XJ

Hampstead Heath & Hill Garden Pergola
Camden, London, United Kingdom
