Tower Bridge is another most attended tourist spots. It is one of London's most famous landmarks, was constructed at the end of 19th century.
I've seen it in a day light and at night. And I should say that in the evening it looks better. Also I've met 2003 there and saw how the bridge opens, as at that time the ship was sailing through :) Lots of people, nice fireworks etc. If it happens that you are in London at New Year's Eve, Tower Bridge is one of the places you could be then.

Trafalgar Square is the main hub of Central London. It was built in honour of Admiral Nelson. This followed his victory in 1805 at the Battle of Trafalgar, off the coast of Spain.
You can find two symethric fountains at the Trafalgar Square and wonderful sculptures in them. Trafalgar Square is always full of pigeons, people and tourists taking photographs of sculptures-lions and the square itself. The Square is always full of people and events, even in the late evening. On Christmas period here you can find a Christmas tree.

This is an architectural masterpiece of the thirteenth to sixteenth centuries. It has an unique place in British history. It has been the setting for every coronation since 1066 and for numerous other royal occasions. Today it is still a church and it still looks beautiful :-)

A small if compare with Westminster Abbey, but in general not so small and very beautiful inside St. Margaret's Church is located at the center of the town. It is still in regular use for worship and for recitals of music. Special atmosphere inside and a good escape from the London's noise and rush during your sightseeing tour. If you're lucky, you'll be able to hear choir repetitions there sometimes.
