Tower of London Castles Next

The Tower of London, is located in the heart of the city.  It has a long and legendary history interwoven with the fate of the British monarchy and royal family.  Kings and princes have been imprisioned here.  Murder and royal intrigue have taken place here.  The castle and grounds are now frequented mainly by visitors from all over the world.  Probably the main attraction is the crown jewels, which are on display here.  My personal favorite is the display of arms and armor from medieval times.   The castle and grounds are well maintained and offer a castle explorer a wonderful starting point when they first arrive in the UK, assuming that you fly into London.
