Architecture in London

So after i was freed from the G20, i took some time out to wander more of the streets of London.
Not really knowing much about the cityscape and landmarks, it was a great opportunity to explore and acquaint myself with the geography of the city.

There is a great contrast in the architecture between that of the modern and that of the historic. Dispersed amongst modern buildings, there are monuments that have withstood the countless generations and societies that have come and gone. St Paul's Cathedral is one example of this. There has been a Cathedral on this site for 1,400 years and the present Cathedral designed by Sir Christopher Wren is now fast approaching the 300th anniversary of its completion.





Tower of London


On the more modern end you have the Swiss Re building - affectionately known as the "erotic gherkin". There are just somethings you don't question.



Definitely looking forward to expanding this portfolio of architecture images.
