Guide: A River Walk Built From Stages

The South Bank is London's easiest culture walk because the venues are genuinely different. Tate Modern handles modern art and Turbine Hall scale, Shakespeare's Globe gives Bankside theatre history, Southbank Centre supplies music, poetry, and festivals, while the National Theatre and BFI cover drama and film. It is high culture without being precious, especially when you let the river, bridges, and bookstalls do some of the work.
