Have to agree with 5150 - the 10 steep approach into LCY has to be one of THE great approaches anywhere now that Kai Tak is long gone. There's something en route to spot for everyone: The Oval (cricketers), Victoria and Waterloo Stations (trainspotters), Buckingham Palace (Royal watchers), Houses of Parliament (politicos), the London Eye (BA Shareholders), the GPO tower (ageing hippies), Westminster Abbey and St Pauls (religious) and the Tower of London (historians) before the dirty dive through (well, above for safety's sake) the tower blocks of Canary Wharf.
