08 London Eye

Next walk along the Embankment until the London Eye.  Opened for the Millennium it is now London's most popular paid tourist attraction, visited by over 3.5 million people annually. i.e it is very busy.  As London is relatively flat with few tall Office buildings you get a good view. I went up with friends on pre booked tickets when it first opened but it was raining and we did not see much. Next year the viewing platform on the Shard tower opens is far higher.
