If you go to the other side of London Aquarium,there is a quiet Thames path facing Houses of Parliament toward Lambeth Bridge. On the road are benches where we can sit to enjoy viewing the gigantic well-known architect calmly. As they have less tourists―I suppose the other side has more attraction for sightseer,such as London Eye and London Bridge,there is no rush to find the seats.
This road leads us to the district called Lambeth. Opposite of The corner for the Lambeth bridge is Lambeth Palace which is the London presence of the Archbishop of Canterbury, one of the oldest sites of the capital date back to 12th century. Next to it is Garden Museum which is used to be the parish church of Lambeth,whose backyard is also laid for tombs of the Tradescants,father and son who were gardeners and collected new plants and fauna from the world to introduce them to Britain in 17th century.
At the museum is the cafe where we can take time for rest after sightseeing in gentle atmosphere.It is really a hidden space.Well, what to do next...if you across the Lambeth Bridge,the right side is Victoria Tower Garden ahead to the Big Ben and at the left you will find Tate Britain which posses British painting collections such as Turner. So, there is still a plenty of plans ahead!!!
