London landmarks
Thames-side tourist attractions
London landmarks are the famous buildings, monuments, and sites that define the city's recognizable character: Big Ben, Tower Bridge, Buckingham Palace, the London Eye.
The phrase typically refers to tourist attractions and historically significant structures rather than any notable location: We spent the day visiting London landmarks.
A tour of London landmarks is practically synonymous with a first visit to the city.
