Itinerar

  1. Cutty Sark

    Trecere fără oprire

    The Cutty Sark was built in Scotland in 1869, made from a mixture of wood and iron. It is a wonderful sight in dry dock, but it must have been even more inspiring in full sail on its way to and from China.

  2. Discover Greenwich Visitor Centre

    Trecere fără oprire

    At the Discover Greenwich Museum you will find historical artefacts, scale models, film footage and hands-on displays, telling the story of the people who shaped the buildings and landscape of Greenwich through the centuries.

  3. Oprirea 3

    Trecere fără oprire

    The Trafalgar Tavern building was built in 1837 and is based on the shape of Nelson's flagship at the Battle of Trafalgar, HMS Victory. With its bow windows and balconies overlooking the Thames, it has always been a popular venue.

  4. Queen's House

    Trecere fără oprire

    Queen’s House was the first classical-style building in England, commissioned by James I in 1619 for his wife, Anne of Denmark. The architect was Inigo Jones, who was influenced by Palladio, the Italian Renaissance architect.

  5. Greenwich Park

    Trecere fără oprire

    Greenwich Park was previously a hunting park in Greenwich and one of the biggest green spaces in south-east London. It covers 180 acres and is a part of the Greenwich World Heritage Site.

  6. Royal Observatory Greenwich

    Trecere fără oprire

    The Royal Observatory was designed by Sir Christopher Wren in the Dutch style. The red ball ascends to the top of the pole at 12:55 each day, and descends at exactly 1pm.

  7. Greenwich

    Trecere fără oprire

    On this walk you will learn how Greenwich Mean Time (or GMT) became the standard from which all the world's times are worked out.
