Local Area:
The Thames Riverside location is fabulous for walks along the river (Queens Walk), theatres, markets, and entertainment venues, with the West End and Covent Garden just across Waterloo Bridge.
The Southbank Centre arts centre hosts a festival program of over 5,000 events every year across various genres, including art, theatre, dance, classical and contemporary music, literature, and debate. Another major local landmark is the London Eye, the world’s largest cantilevered observation wheel, conceived and designed by Marks Barfield Architects and launched in 2000. It has won over 85 awards for national and international tourism, outstanding architectural quality, and engineering achievement. The London Eye is available for corporate events and has become one of the most visited attractions in the UK.
The area of the present Southbank was severely damaged during the Second World War, which led to a major regeneration program. South Bank was chosen as the site for the Festival of Britain to spearhead this regeneration. The bombed-out riverside was cleared and developed in 1951. The Royal Festival Hall remained as a permanent legacy and initiated an arts revival that saw the addition of other arts venues, such as the Hayward Gallery and Royal National Theatre, adding a second attraction to dining and outdoor entertainment.
