By Maurice F. Quilligan


London England is known for its rich culture, history and superb sights to see. In the summer of 2012, it can boast another large historical event, the 2012 Olympics. If one is sufficiently fortunate to get to see this, just being in this awesome city is something to celebrate. The capital city is ready for the influx of visitors with tons of sights to see.

The Olympic torch enters this fine city in July of 2012 and will host games through August. An already exciting Mecca of bustling activity, the 2012 games being hosted here is yet another jewel in its sparkling crown of acclaim. Humanities, Museums and shopping are intermingled with all of the culture.

Not only are the Olympic Games coming to this city, but also in the spring of 2012, Warner Brothers. Will be opening the tour of the sets of Harry Potter. Nowhere else on earth can one walk the actual places Harry and the gang have walked, see the get ups or experience the incredible special effects from this classic film series.

The Eye definitely is a sight not to miss. The tallest viewing wheel in the world was introduced in 1999. A gorgeous structure that takes visitors high in the air and lets them see for miles all of the awe and wonder of the capitol city.

Or perhaps your folks would prefer a tour of a different more adrenaline pumping macabre type. If this is correct take the family to, "The London Dungeon" theme park. There's no better place to experience all of the gore and horror that England's bloody past, has to offer .

Be certain not to miss Madame Tussauds with 14 awe-inspiring sectors of wax figures. One can have their picture taken with stars or hang out among the Marvel comics superheroes. If the dream has always been to hobnob with the royals, then meeting the Queen at Madame Tussauds will be the easiest way to spend the day.

When visiting this grand city, a person shouldn't miss visiting the Square Mile. It's not just about business and finance, it's so much more. There are galleries, theaters, museums and not to be missed culture. It is home to the Barbican Centre, which is legendary for its shows and art.

Some days while traveling need to be more low key. For those times, why not hop on over to the Sea Life London Aquarium. Experience sharks and corals in their natural habitats. The peacefulness of the subaquatic world can't be beat.

The British Museum offers fabulous things to see at the amazing price of free. One should not leave London without taking a day or 2 at this museum. See the Rosetta stone, Egyptian mummies, or take a guided tour of the high spots of this awesome collection. The minute one steps into this grand modern architecture they're going to feel a fast connection with the past.

Whatever why someone is going to London Britain, be it business or pleasure, there's something for everyone to see. The capitol city is rich in culture and blinding sights. This city should be on top of each person's bucket list.
