Sometimes very busy... Be careful with your witts about you as there are plenty of pedestrians and other vehicles around...

Also, you have to pay attention to how the path changes around this area, sometimes you need to cross over.

View of the London Eye from Cycle Superhighway CS3

Highlight (Segment) • Monument

In London, there are already six finished and two more to be completed in 2018. These "highways" run from the outskirts to the center of the city and are usually created separately from the car traffic. Definitely, you drive much safer and faster in these ways than without you. My impression, the ways are already quite overloaded. Traffic jam on the bike path? Can you experience here at rush hour? Nevertheless, of course, a good thing. Because without these ways I found cycling in London anything but funny.

View of the London Eye

Highlight • Viewpoint

On the banks of the Thames, the world's third largest ferris wheel (the highest in 2004) revolves around the 135-meter-high Coca Cola London Eye. In the center of London you can take a short trip to heaven and enjoy a great view over London. Weather permitting, you can look up to 40 kilometers beyond the city limits of London to Windsor Castle.

From this central vantage point, one can see both the old traditional London and the many modern buildings and influences. Thus, the London Eye also stands for the changing times and should at the same time provide a glimpse into the past and the outlook for the future. Fittingly, the Ferris wheel was then opened to visitors at the turn of the millennium in the year 2000.

The building was designed by the architects David Markus and Julia Barfield - the gondolas were designed by Nick Bailey. The owner of the London Eye is the Merlin Entertainment Group. The 32 capsules, made almost entirely of glass, can hold up to 25 people each. Numbered are the capsules but until 33, because the number 13 has been omitted, which should bring good luck. For a circumnavigation, the bike takes about 30 minutes. By the way, the bike almost never stops: its low speed of rotation allows passengers to get on and off comfortably while they are in operation.

The view from the glass capsules of the Ferris wheel over the center of London is great. However, the London Eye is popular and the crowd is correspondingly high. If you really want to ride with you and want to plan in advance, you can buy your tickets online and save yourself the queues.

Wellington Arch

Highlight • Monument

Wellington Arch, also known as Constitution Arch or (originally) as the Green Park Arch, is a Grade I-listed triumphal arch by Decimus Burton that forms a centrepiece of Hyde Park Corner in central London, between corners of Hyde Park and Green Park; it stands on a large traffic island with crossings for pedestrian access. From its construction in 1826 until 1830 the arch stood in a different location nearby; it was moved to its current site in 1882–1883. It originally supported a colossal equestrian statue of the 1st Duke of Wellington by the sculptor Matthew Cotes Wyatt, as a result of which it has acquired the name "the Wellington Arch" in the vernacular. A bronze quadriga (an ancient four-horse chariot) by Adrian Jones has surmounted it since 1912.

Covering over 5,000 acres of historic parkland, the parks provide beautiful green spaces right in the heart of the capital where you can escape the hustle and bustle of the city. They're a place for you to relax and unwind, exercise and clear your mind. If it's history and architecture you're after, we have hundreds of buildings, statues and memorials, giving a fascinating insight into London's heritage.
