Landmarks London - Help required

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Landmarks London - Help required

Post by Impactor returns 2.0 » Wed Mar 01, 2006 4:02 pm

Im looking for suggestions on what ppl feel are Iconic landmarks of London.

Im making a promo-graphic for the 2012 Olympics, and some of my background images or perhaps just an Image need to be of London Landmarks.

It will be interesting to hear what ppl outside the UK consider an Iconic London image to be.

the London Eye (if that still exists).

And those Obfleur mentioned.

Plus the gentlemen in suits and with umbrellas.

Well when I imagine London I see the Big Ben, those red buses (If they still exist), the Palace of Buckinham and in last place Mr Belvedere :D

If its England then I think in Churchill, Margaret Thatcher, The Queen (your sovereign, and the band), Lady D, The Beatles and James Bond.

Possibly Canary Wharf for a more modern perspective.

Also, Trafalgar Sq. St Pauls. Maybe Tower of London.

Marble Arch is gash though.
