Waterloo Attraction

  • Browse Used Books Under Waterloo Bridge

The Southbank Centre Book Market, located on Queen's Walk just beneath Waterloo Bridge, has hundreds of used books. Classic and contemporary fiction, non-fiction, maps, antique books, prints, and comics are all available. London's book market isn't the only one of its kind. It's one of the south's only permanent outdoor second-hand book markets. 

  • Learn About Architecture And Art At Tate Modern

If you walk along the edge of South Bank until you reach Bankside, you will come across Tate Modern. It's free to visit and worth seeing even if you just want to see the buildings, especially since Switch House 2016 expanded and opened. The building was designed by Herzog de Meuron and features a large twisted stairwell and sharp lines throughout. Plus, because of the modern layout, it can be crowded without feeling claustrophobic. 

  • Reach The Top At London Eye

The humongous wheel is a prime spot for sweeping views on a clear day (or even better, night). It's worth looking for ticket deals ahead of time because they're more expensive on the day. The London Tour lasts about 30 minutes, and you should see most of London's most famous landmarks during that time. The Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, and the Tower of London are all worth seeing.

  • Eat And Drink At Southbank Centre Food Market

If you head down the steps on the Southbank Centre's side for the food market as an alternative to the riverfront's chain restaurants. The dosas at Horn OK Please, an Indian veggie stall, are excellent. The Curry Shack, The Polish Deli, Ethiopiques' vegan Ethiopian food, and Arabica's eastern Mediterranean flavours are among the stalls. Sweet treats such as custard tarts and cakes are also available (including dairy and gluten-free). A

  • Visit Gabriel's Wharf

Gabriel's Wharf is a small enclave of (mostly) independent shops, cafes, bars, and restaurants tucked away from the bustle of the South Bank.
