The London Eye

Paris has the Eiffel Tower, New York the Empire State, and London of course has the London Eye to be proud of. It is the world’s largest observation wheel offers a spectacular way to take in over 55 of London’s most famous landmarks in just 30 minutes! Located at the Westminster Bridge Road, about 12 pounds, it took 7 years.. hundreds of ppl from 5 countries to make the London eye a reality. I was really privileged to be one of the very first to take a ride when it was first opened. Was i scared..?? nah.. !! it was like going on a ferris wheel.. like the one in Japan.. Tokyo. But it was a breathtaking view.. and exhilarating nonetheless. The ones in Singapore .. now reminds me so much of the one in London.



Fountains Abbey, North Yorkshire

Fountain Abbey also known as the the Rustic Bridge here. Britain’s largest monastic ruin and said to be founded in 1132 by 13 Benedictine monks. Sold in the year 1540 to a merchant following the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1539 by Henry VIII. It is sad to see so many of the beautiful abbeys destroyed. It took us alot of walking.. as the place was huge. But exploring was fun. .and we took alot of pictures. The air was warm.. and humid.

More WarWick

More of the castle of Warwick.  I had a great time..and it was tiring.. luckily it wasn’t as humid as i thought.  But if you are ever in the area.. you should go visit the Warwick Castle.. because it is definitely an experience in itself… and long lasting memories to bring home.

One of the castles.

One of the many performers in the castle all dressed up in Medieval times..! so you wanna be saved by this knight in shining amour .. on a horse..??

Another magnificent sight of the castle.



Warwick Castle, England

Well.. if you were traveling Europe.. one must never miss visiting the Warwick Castle in England.  Exploring the castle took more than 1 day.. but we only had one day to spend… so here it is.. the entrance going to Warwick..!  i felt i was going back to Medieval times.

Magnificent looking castle right..??and breath-taking too.. if i may add. Open all year except during the Christmas… this is Britain’s greatest Mediaeval experience. From a Mediaeval household in the Kingmaker exhibition to a Victorian ‘Royal Weekend Party’. Kingmaker feasts and Highwayman Suppers.  The town of Warwick was also a very memorable experience it was for us.. and it was great for all ages too.  Very easily accessible.. you can drive, take a bus or a train.. or even choose to cycle or go on foot. Lots of cafes .. restaurants and other eateries.. great for someone who loves food like i do and tasting different stuff. The Market Square was a delight.. i hear it plays host to numerous events throughout the year and is the home of the Charter Market.
