SOUTH BANK AND AROUND
The South Bank has a lot going for it. As well as the massive waterside arts centre, it's
home to a host of tourist attractions including the enormously popular London Eye.
With most of London's key sights sitting on the north bank of the Thames, the views
from here are the best on the river, and thanks to the wide, traffic-free riverside
boulevard, the whole area can be happily explored on foot. And a short walk from the
South Bank lie one or two lesser-known but nonetheless absorbing sights such as the
Imperial War Museum, which contains the country's only permanent exhibition de-
voted to the Holocaust.
