Starting at Fulham Broadway the route travels King`s Road in Chelsea with many boutiques and antique




When visiting a city for the first time, I like to ride a hop-on-hop-off bus to show me a first impression of where I`ve landed my feet. It`s not always the cheapest option though and when Laura told me about Bus 11 being a good alternative, travel cuts I wanted to give it a try.
Starting at Fulham Broadway travel cuts the route travels King`s Road in Chelsea with many boutiques and antiques shops. After a while (about 40 minutes, depending on traffic) you see Westminster Cathedral appearing and this is where the sightseeing really begins. You`re reaching Parliament Square with the Houses of Parliament, but also the lesser known Supreme Court which you can visit for free.
You move along the Royal Courts of Justice  and St Paul`s Cathedral with its world-famous dome. When you decide to make a stop here, there is plenty to visit in this area, like the Museum of London travel cuts , where you can learn more on the history of London: the Great Fire of London, (The museum is open daily and free!). Or have lunch at the Postman`s Park, a cozy little park where you can reflect at the memorial built to remember the people who gave their live to save that of others.
If you`re still looking for sights to see, visit the  Bank of England where you can try to lift a gold bar! (The Museum has a free entrance and is open from Monday to Friday, 10.00 17.00 (last entry at 4.45pm).
The Bus 11 route will take you to Liverpool Street travel cuts where it will stop (or start its journey, depending which direction you`re riding the bus). At Liverpool Street you can see the Gherkin, a skyscraper in London`s financial district, the City of London.
If you just want to drive by all the highlights using an Oyster Card is the cheapest option travel cuts . If you would like to use this bus as a hop-on-hop-off system, and interrupt your bus tour to see the London attractions along the way, you`re better off buying a daily travel card.
This makes me miss London! We loved hopping on and off random bus routes and finding out where they go. Another route that is good for sightseeing travel cuts is bus RV1. It runs from Covent Garden to the Tower of London, crossing Tower Bridge and passing most of central London s sights. There are also two heritage routes travel cuts (9 and 15), which means that the old original routemaster buses still run on them and they also pass lots of sights (9 runs along Hyde Park Green Park to Trafalgar Square and 15 heads east from Trafalgar travel cuts Square to St Paul s Cathedral).
There's nothing more I love than traveling the world, camera travel cuts in hand, experiencing new adventures and discovering new destinations. I hope to be an inspiration and help others in their ventures to explore the world.
