When you think of the United Kingdom, you may well summon up mental images of Big Ben in London, and the queen eating crumpets in the middle of a field somewhere, while men in big hats play polo all around. If you were planning to visit the UK, whether through hdb room rental<\/a>, or a standard bed and breakfast, however, what would you really know about where to start your sightseeing adventure?<\/p>\n Here are some suggestions and details \u2014 both for some of the obvious and common tourist hotspots, and also for some of the less well-known and more niche attractions<\/p>\n Go watch a play at Shakespeare\u2019s Globe and then take a boat to Greenwich\u00a0<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Shakespeare\u2019s Globe is the reconstruction of the Elizabethan-era theatre where William Shakespeare performed his most famous plays, and where the other leading lights of the Elizabethan theatre strutted their stuff in style, and told stories that are still popular today.<\/p>\n Located on the south bank of the river Thames in London, Shakespeare\u2019s Globe is a fantastic throwback to the architecture and style of the period when the master playwright himself was active. With a wooden stage and stalls, standing room, and an open roof (which may be covered by a tarpaulin if the weather turns unpleasant), you will struggle not to feel as if you\u2019ve been transported back in time, as you settle in to watch a performance here.<\/p>\n The theatre is only open at certain times of year, and features a variety of plays \u2014 some traditional, others more experimental<\/a> or artsy \u2014 often performed by travelling theatre troupes who tour the continent, if not the world, putting on their performances.<\/p>\n Once you have finished watching a stunning rendition of Hamlet or Titus Andronicus, why not continue the day in style with a trip via river to Greenwich?<\/p>\n The London \u201cRiver Bus\u201d runs from directly in front of the Globe theatre, and for a small price, you can enjoy riding down the Thames on a boat, seeing the city in all it\u2019s glory from the centre of the river \u2014 which is, itself, one of the nation\u2019s natural treasures.<\/p>\n After a moderate-length journey on the river bus, you will come to Greenwich \u2014 site of the world-famous Royal Observatory, said to be on the world\u2019s \u201cPrime Meridian\u201d, and the birthplace of the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) time zone.<\/p>\n Here you can see the clocks which revolutionised our understanding of the world, and of time, and step between the line which separates the world between East and West.<\/p>\n The view from the hilltop observatory is, of course, breathtaking, and Greenwich boasts other attractions for the enthusiastic explorer to enjoy \u2014 such as the Cutty Sark, a preserved 19th Century ship used in the tea trade.<\/p>\n Visit Land\u2019s End in Cornwall, and stare out over the North Atlantic Ocean\u00a0<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Land\u2019s End is the most Westerly, and (very nearly) the most Southerly point of Great Britain \u2014 often contrasted to John O\u2019 Groats, in Scotland, as the most Northerly point of Great Britain.<\/p>\n Visiting Land\u2019s End can be an incredible experience \u2014 not least of all because, in order to get there, you\u2019ve got to drive for a considerable while through the weird and wonderful Cornish countryside, past abandoned tin mines, and along the breathtaking coastline which \u2014 with the right lighting and weather conditions \u2014 can easily seem like something straight out of Arthurian legend.<\/p>\n
\n<\/a>
\nThere are few countries in the world which are quite as evocative and iconic as the UK, whether it be in the form of the fairytale legends of the middle ages, which continuously get re-told and re-expressed through the latest movies, TV shows and books, or whether in the more recent form of pop-cultural icons like the Beetles or the Rolling Stones.<\/p>\n
