Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum London
Still one of the most popular tourist destinations in London, Madame Tussaud's continues to delight visitors with an every increasing number of "residents" from politicians to pop stars. The "Museum" originally opened in 1835 with a small sampling. Today you can see hundreds of royals, singers, actors, statesmen and murderers. They are all here - the famous and the infamous. The list of celebrities from the world of entertainment is long, as are the queues for getting a picture beside them! The Spirit of London - a taxi ride through four hundred years of history introduces you to famous Londoners throughout history.
In recent years, Madame Tussaud's has become more interactive. A newly-introduced chamber of horrors puts you right into the middle of things... perhaps a bit closer than you would care to be!
A word of advice: if at all possible buy your tickets online in order to avoid waiting in line with the crowds.
