Amazing!You must go if you come to London bridge . You can see all the beauty of London. You will find a restaurant on 32th floor and a cafe bar on 52th but you should make a reservation for no waiting

Paige Hunter

Come up for the absolute best views of London . You really can see everything! There are snacks and champagne available to buy at the top as well . It's a lovely experience.

Yes, it does look like a long shard of glass in person, which is what it pretty much looks like in photos. Definitely a one of its kind structure and worthy of your photo-taking time!

Benjamin 🚀

Absolutely brilliant!!! Make a reservation in advance so you don't have to wait. Also make the extra step and head up to the outdoor observation deck. 🌃

The tallest building in London also in Europe . There is a viewing terrace at the top for a price. If you don’t want to pay try Sky Garden opposite of the river

Adam Flanagan

The architecture and views are phenomenal. The toilets are simply awesome, if somewhat lacking in privacy! Whilst an awesome building and experience, the price is extortionate.

Nicole Mills

Great views over London. Quite expensive for a ticket to the top. Bar , restaurant and gelato available at the top.

The architecture is WOW. But honestly the afternoon was not only over priced but average. You must not wear sport , trainers etc or you will not be allowed to go in.

Oliver Waters

Highly recommend. Pre-book for sunset to see London by day and by night. Champagne package is also worth it!

Katie Frampton

I recommend going in the evening... You can see absolutely everything! Plus, London at night is always gorgeous! (And less tourists )

Renzo Piano beautified London's skyline. The view from the 32nd floor bar is magnificent. (The cocktails too)

S Marks The Spots

Enjoy the breathtaking views from the 68th, 69th and 72nd floor! Use one of the several digital telescopes to pick out famous London landmarks in real time, day-time or night-time view . Read more

Interpreted as an alternative to the London Eye, it is the tallest structure in Europe where you can see the view 360 degrees. Read more

If you could, stay at Shangri-La at The Shard for even a night. It's worth every pound spent.

Olga Sidorova

Beautiful hotel 💘 fantastic staff 🙌amazing view 🙌 highly recommended😜

Des Pudels Kern

Go for the Gong-bar on the 52nd floor. Great drinks with an astonishing view of London . Skip Tink restaurant on the 35th floor. Service is slow and the food boring.

Stephen Robinson

Pay to see The View from the Shard. It's worth it, especially on a lovely day.

JM Hav

Go up at Twilight and the views over London will be amazing!

The Shard or Shard London Bridge is a skyscraper in Southwark, London. Standing 309.6 metres (1,016 ft) above ground level, it is the tallest building in Europe as of July 2012

HISTORY UK

Standing at 310m high, the Shard will own the title of the EU's tallest building when completed in 2012. In 1098 the White Tower was named Britain's tallest building standing at a mere 27m tall.

Stefania Mani

Amazing view . Went there before the sunset so we saw everything in both day and night light.

Jessica

Don't bother with the pricey viewing platform , save that money and head to one of the bars for a cocktail with a view !

A.J

Come just before sunset so you can see London both at day and night :)

New York Habitat

The pyramid-shaped skyscraper is almost complete so come and check out the finishing touches! The Shard is currently the tallest building in Europe !

ellali

Amazing building and the view above London is adorable

Lydia Sasaroli

Stunning views of London . The view at night is amazing! Perfect surprise gift for your loved one :)

Brad T

Avoid the line for 'the bird's and go straight to the line for bar and restaurants for the whole experience.

luc t

Really London? Who builds an 87-storey skyscraper without a carpark!? Anti-car green washing my @55! What about the disabled?

Amit Pandit

Excellent views . Service at the bar can be extremely slow, but the food and service ones seated makes up for this.

Aldous Noah

Tallest building in Western Europe ! 🇬🇧

ᴬᴮᴱᴱᴿ

Nice view .. Great place for afternoon tea 👌🏻

kate

Great view by day & night, not too busy, unlimited time upstairs, free wi-fi. Money very well spent!

Architects are a competitive bunch, with each opus's raison d'etre being to trump the others. Thus, on completion the 'Shard of Glass ' will be Europe 's tallest building. Read more

Jamie Barnard

GowithOh

The Shard in London - where you'll find the best view of the UK's capital!

Christian Duncan

Go up the escalator outside London Bridge tube for an epic reminder of how tiny we are!

Senel Akarca

Thoroughly enjoyed the view however it is virtually impossible to get a panoramic shot because of the bearings and why isn't there a glasa elevator ? !It's a glass building I thought that was the point

Diana Kalsi

Amazing birthday drink 🍹 fantastic view

Ana Lara

No need to pay to go to the top. Go for a drink or dinner in one of its restaurants !

Steve Lyons

take some cash and treat yourself to a glass of champagne (£10) when in the viewing gallery

Edwin Tan

A pretty building. It's short though... drop in at Shanghai for tall building's a plenty.

Enzo Martinelli

Lovely Xmas light show. It should be kept all year long

Marwa☕️
