With its huge glass panels spanning many metres high, the Shard is as impressive from inside as it is from the exterior.

The viewing platform commands some amazing views and these panels add to the experience of being there.

This is one of the spectacular views over London from the top of the Shard.

As its only an hours journey from our town, we'll quite often jump on the train and head off to the city to explore. There's always something new to see, as like any other city it's an ever changing landscape.
