Part of the Thames Embankment, the Victoria Embankment is a road that sits adjacent to the River Thames. You can walk along this beautiful embankment, and come rain or shine it's a great way to see some of the most beautiful parts of the city. Soak in the views, gaze at the bridges ahead and see how the river twinkles when the streetlights hit the water. Around five minutes away is Embankment station, with Westminster Abbey and the London Eye being some of the most popular nearby attractions. The area is also home to Victoria Embankment Garden which was opened back in 1865 and features a memorial to the poet Robert Burns. This is one of London’s most sought after event and party locations. It’s not just a beautiful spot in the heart of the capital, but it’s brilliantly well connected too, so you’ll have no concerns over travel arrangements.
