Récents 5 avis surRoyal Observatory Greenwich
Great if you like Navigation or Astronomy
The Royal Observatory did not do a lot for me. Was nice enough. I do not have much interest in navigation or atronomy. You do get great views from the Observatory and you can stand astride the Prime Meridian.
A nice part of a day trip to Greenwich.
Good for a day trip
I took a day-trip out to Greenwich from London and had a great time, the Observatory is a great place to visit and it is neat to get your picture taken on the "line of logditude" the observatory has a lot of interactive displays and the town of Greenwich is very friendly.
great family day out!!
The Royal Observatory Greenwich is a great family day out, on its own or combined with the other attractions in Greenwich, London. (such as the maritime musuem, queen's house, fan museum etc). It is situated in Greenwich Park up a little hill, a short walk away from Greenwich DLR station. The way is clearly marked, so you shouldn't have a problem with that. It only takes about half an hour to get to Greenwich from Central London (zone 1), so it's not that far really. View over London from the hill is magnificent.
This place is brilliant for kids and adults alike. There's always gonna be a line for the Meridian Line (one leg in each hemisphere, who can resist?), so you might want to make a beeline for that first if you happen to be early. The exhibitions are interactive and very informative, and highly suited to those of all ages. The planetarium also screens very good shows, and with the Night Sky Live, you can even have a real-live astronomer talk you through spotting stars and planets!
Entry to the Royal Observatory is free, while you will have to pay for the Planetarium shows (which i highly recommend!) All in all, a great day out.
One of my favourite places in London
Greenwich is one of my favourite areas in London and the observatory is well worth a visit especially if you are around Greenwich. It is surrounded by the park and has the best view of East London.
I actually went in to the observatory when I was a little girl but remember having to observe the stars and the whole theory of astronomy and planets were explained. I still go around there now. Greenwich altogether is a very peaceful place to be.
To get to is might be a bit of a struggle as you have to walk up to the top where it is. But if you are going by car you enter from the top of the park in that case you are just few minutes walk away from it.
The closest station is Maritime Greenwich DLR (Dockland Light Railway) and it takes about 10 minutes to walk there. The Cutty Sark is on the left as you come out of the station but however due to the fire it has been closed.
Stand on the line and take your photo!
After a good amount of walking from the Docklands light rail, via Canary Wharf, thru a couple small streets, thru a beautiful pak, then up a mid-sized steep hill, you reach the Maritime line. The views to London, especially the Canary Wharf office buildings are amazing. Specular fun to have your photo taken on "the line" by yourself or with your friends; and even a quaint gift shop, too. Although its a good hike to get there from London Central, plan a good hour at least, it's just plain fun! I will always remember it, that's for sure. Clearly a world renown tourist sight! Remember to wear comfortable shoes!
