South Bank, a place to visit in London
We are in a world where everyone is busy with something or the other. Some are busy with work and some with studies, often we tend to ignore the fact that we have a life beyond our work and education. Even though things turn out to be monotone, we still continue to do the same to achieve our goal. I believe our work is important; however, we need to have fun as well to have a balanced life.
The South Bank is one of those cultural centers which bring a lot of fun. Last week I had the opportunity to visit the South Bank situated in the borough of Southwark. South Bank is a place full of energy with exciting concert halls and lots of theaters. The Hayward gallery is known for some of the best exhibitions including gold and silver jewellery.
The South Bank consists of three major concert halls, the Royal National Theatre, the National Film Theater and the new addition which is the London Eye. Apart from these you have street entertainment, lots of pubs, restaurants etc.
Once upon a time South Bank was the most disreputable and infamous part of London. In those days the kind of fun and entertainment people used to have were cock fighting, bear and bull-baiting and prostitution. People who belonged to this area were poor and were living in unsanitary conditions. The clink prison was situated in Southwark which was home for the notorious.
Today South Bank is a safe place which attracts a considerable crowd every day. It is one of London’s major attractions.
