Rising proudly along the Thames, the White Tower is London’s oldest fortress—and a living relic of English history. Built by William the Conqueror, this mighty stone keep has served as royal palace, prison, and now, the heart of the Royal Armouries. Walk its shadowed corridors, climb the spiral stairs, and stand atop the battlements for a panoramic view of the capital. At sunset, when the tower glows golden, you’ll understand: history isn’t past—it’s present.
