Have you ever heard of Millennium Bridge? I visited this place a couple of months back and truly understood its value. So this is why this summer, I visited this place again with my sister. I really liked the experience and how it led me to my next destination (read the next article). So is Millennium Bridge truly overrated?

What is the Millennium Bridge?

Millennium Bridge is a steel suspension bridge that connects Bankside with The City Of London. This famous tourist attraction has also been featured in many movies including ‘Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince’, and I believe in the Bollywood movie ‘Housefull 3’.

What did I like about Millennium Bridge?

  • I really liked the view as you walk on the bridge – you can see St Paul’s Cathedral and the River Thames was reflecting the beautiful sunshine.
  • It was the perfect place to take many pictures.
  • It was very crowded due to pedestrians having to cross to the other side and also because of its popularity.

What didn’t I like about Millennium Bridge?

  • There wasn’t anything, in particular, I didn’t like except that you should hold on tight to your valuables as you would not want it to fall in the water.

Would I recommend it?

Yes, I would recommend it because it is popular for a good reason, it lets you cross to the other side and you get to see the River Thames. What more do you want?

Bermondsey Beach: Truly A Relaxing Atmosphere https://surobiscribbles.com/bermondsey-beach-truly-a-relaxing-atmosphere/ Wed, 23 Oct 2019 20:58:39 +0000 http://surobiscribbles.com/?p=409

This summer, I really wanted to go to a beach but I wanted to try a new beach that I never heard of. Bermondsey Beach was the answer so I and my sister travelled to Bermondsey Beach. What I saw was surprising. Read on to find out my findings:

What is Bermondsey Beach?

Bermondsey Beach is a public beach in London where you can see some tourist attractions and water.

What did I like about Bermondsey Beach?

  • I liked that it was an unusual beach as when I went there were little to no people so we could just enjoy the water quietly.
  • You could clearly see the tourist attractions.
  • There was a gush of wind passing through the place.

What didn’t I like about Bermondsey Beach?

  • I didn’t like that you could not touch the water and when we used Google Maps, it showed that we had reached the beach but there was a bridge blocking us from the water.
  • There wasn’t any sand, demonstrating that it is not your typical beach like Southend-on-sea or Brighton.

Would I recommend it?

Yes, I would recommend going there to just relax with your loved ones on a cool afternoon to enjoy the water.

This was my short review or diary entry about Bermondsey Beach. These are my opinions about this place. Make sure to check out my other articles:

Greenwich Foot Tunnel: Is It Safe? https://surobiscribbles.com/greenwich-foot-tunnel-is-it-safe/ Wed, 23 Oct 2019 20:53:22 +0000 http://surobiscribbles.com/?p=405

From a young age, I was taught that tunnels are dark, deep and dangerous. So, when I was heading down to Greenwich Foot Tunnel, I felt a mixture of emotions run down my spine. I wanted to walk down this dark tunnel – it would be a brand new adventure. So did I enjoy my experience at this particular tunnel?

What is Greenwich Foot Tunnel?

It is a tunnel that crosses beneath the River Thames, linking Greenwich on the south bank with Millwall on the north.

What did I like about the Greenwich Foot Tunnel?

  • I liked that you can cross from the north to the south for free as some people may not want to pay for a cruise to get to the other side.
  • There is enough space for lots of people to walk through.

What didn’t I like about Greenwich Foot Tunnel?

  • I didn’t like the smell as it was a bit unpleasant. Also, I didn’t really feel that safe as it was quite dark so I and my sister didn’t walk all the way to the other side and left after a few minutes. 

Would I recommend it?

I think I would recommend going in the day when it’s much safer just to see the entrance but I don’t think I would recommend staying there for long or walking to the other side as I didn’t feel very safe.
