The clock tower, tower bridge, palace and many other famous landmarks - they are all situated in
London, also known as the capital of UK. Another city off my bucket-list,
alhamdulillah! J
We spent about 5 days in London before heading to Scotland
(Glasgow) for the one-month immersion programme. Pretty much covered most of the
attractions there namely Big Ben, Tower Bridge, Westminster, Tower of London, London
Bridge, London Eye, Buckingham Palace, Spitalfield Market, Oxford Street, Trafalgar Square and
Warner Bros Harry Potter Tour (Watford). Unlike Paris, we did not go for the
sightseeing bus tour as the attractions are quite near one another. So yayyy,
pounds saved from that!
Big Ben

Ben is the nickname for the Great Bell of the clock at the north end of the
Palace of Westminster in London, and often extended to refer to the clock and
the clock tower. (Wikipedia)

on the South Bank

The team behind Warner Bros. Studio Tour London - The Making of Harry Potter wanted to
preserve and showcase these iconic props, costumes and sets so that Harry Potter fans could experience
the magic of filmmaking first-hand. Many of the original cast and crew returned
to reassemble the sets and record their memories from filming, and on 31st
March 2012, the Studio Tour opened its doors. (Official Website: https://www.wbstudiotour.co.uk)
