Greenwich is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most historic areas of London.

It's also one of the greenest, with Greenwich Park and the River Thames providing fresh air and breathtaking city views.

There's so much to see and do, including historic ship Cutty Sark and the Royal Observatory Greenwich, the vintage shops and street food of Greenwich Market, amazing exhibitions and planetarium shows, plus the free National Maritime Museum and Queen's House.

To make the most of your day out and save 25% on tickets, book a Royal Museums Greenwich Day Pass and get access to both Cutty Sark and the Royal Observatory.
