Last weeks I went to The Tower of London, thanks to @headout ❤️ When William the Conqueror built a mighty stone tower at the centre of his London fortress in the 1070s, defeated Londoners must have looked on in awe. Now nearly 1000 years later, the Tower still has the capacity to fascinate and horrify. Don’t pay full price for your tickets!

🏰Enjoy a snippet of our afternoon at @thetoweroflondon with @headout (AD - PR tickets) 🏰 Have you head of @headout ? It’s such a great way to book amazing experiences in London. We’ve been looking to visit The Tower of London for so long now and so we booked through Headout London. We got to pass the huge queue for tickets which added to our experience. We enjoyed visiting the armoury and the torture chamber. We saw the Crown Jewels in real life, which Teddy had heard so much about during the Royal Jubilee (tip: wait til late in the afternoon to avoid the queues) and we also really enjoyed seeing all statues of the ex menagerie animals. We had such a great afternoon! Remember to check out @headout to book your own fun experiences in London. . . . #headout #dowtk #daysoutwiththekids #london #londontickets #toweroflondon #mummybloggeruk #mummyblogger #takeyourkidseverywhere #londontickets #visitlondon #london #becauseimalondoner #prettycitylondon #mrshinchhome #imahincher #mrshinch

The White Tower, which gives the entire castle its name, was built by William the Conqueror in 1078 and played a prominent role in English history. Here are few facts about the Tower: ⚔️The Tower of London Was London’s First Zoo. It all began in 1235, when Henry III was gifted three Leopards, and he decided to start a zoo. A polar bear was acquired in 1252 and then an African elephant joined the clan in 1255. ⚔️ Despite Holding Famous Prisoners, The Tower Was Never Supposed to Be a Prison By the Tudor era, the tower was famed for being the most high-security and brutal prison in the country. ⚔️ Skeletons Have Recently Been Found Underneath The Tower As recently as 2019, two 500-year-old skeletons were discovered buried underneath the Tower of London. It’s believed that the skeletons were of an adult woman and a child, while the remains of a dog were also found nearby. 🎟 I got my ticket from @headout Www.headout.com have the cheapest price for the castle, especially if using code IVELINA for 10% discount!
