The 360 degree view from the Shard

AT £25 EACH IT LOOKS LIKE THIS WILL SAVE YOU SOME MONEY, EVEN IF IT DOES MAKE YOU FEEL ILL!!!!!!!

Subject: Fw: Shard London, Fantastic !!

For those with a 'head for heights', here's a view from the top of the Shard. Why pay £25 to visit the viewing/observation floor on top, when you can see it for free on here.

Technology is great.

You will be somewhat interested in this view of London from the top of the “Shard” the latest high structure in the City, its crystalline façade rearing 1,016 ft over the London skyline as Europe's tallest building to date.

For your information - floors 2- 28 are offices. 31 – 33 high class restaurants. 34 – 52 is a 5 star hotel complex. 53 -65 is residential accommodation on top of which comes the observation lounges on floors 68 – 72.

You can have much fun swinging the view around (as per the screen instructions) zoom in and out – traverse 360 deg. And see London as never before. Following the long straight rail line approaching – and zooming in on the horizon you will see Greenwich and beyond that on the skyline, Shooters Hill and its water tower.

It is almost impossible to be anywhere in Greater London and NOT see the ‘shard’ now.

Good that

 

that is amazing but I felt dizzy!

 

It's good, but it didn't half make me glad I don't live in a city. Sheffield is a fraction of the size of London, but when I lived there, as much as I enjoyed it, I hated that I had to drive my car for 45 minutes just to escape the urban sprawl. I wonder how long you have to drive for if you're in central London and want to get to the nearest countryside.
