Rick Steves' Europe (2000)

S3E5 London: Mod and Trad

London perfectly blends its traditional English charm with a vibrant cosmopolitan flair. We explore modern marvels like the Millennium Bridge and the Great Court at the British Museum, while also marveling at ancient treasures such as mummies and a unique Leonardo painting. After sharing some light-hearted exchanges with Beefeaters at the Tower of London, we enjoy a leisurely walk along the riverside. Our stroll along the fashionable South Bank of the Thames leads us from the Tate Modern to the breathtaking heights of the London Eye.
