The London Borough of Greenwich stretches along the River Tames for eight miles. At its edge is the town center - Maritime Greenwich, the World Heritage Site.
Pick up a map from the tourist office in Cutty Sark Gardens and then walk up Greenwich Church Street and go trough the market, turn right and enter Greenwich Park. You can see in Greenwich: Cutty Sark ( replica of tea clipper, it was the fastest sailing ship in 19th century), Greenwich Market, St. Alfrege Church, Old Royal Observatory, National Maritime Museum, Chapel, Painted Hall (University of Greenwich).
From the Observatory Hill you can enjoy one of the London's finest views.
