Highlights

Experience the wonder of being in two hemispheres at once at London's Royal Observatory in Greenwich. Your tickets grant you access to the epicenter of space and time. Immerse yourself in the history of the Greenwich Meridian Line and GMT, the Prime Meridian of the world since 1884. Prepare to be captivated by tales of space, stars, and astronomy. Perhaps you'll even depart with newfound aspirations to explore the world.

Time your visit to witness the dropping of the iconic red Time Ball atop Flamsteed House, a historic public time signal that descends daily at 13:00. Step into Charles II's magnificent Wren-designed Octagon Room, also known as 'The Great Star Room'. Discover the groundbreaking inventions of John Harrison, which revolutionized navigation and solved the longitude problem. Don't miss the Great Equatorial Telescope, the UK's largest historic telescope that offered astronomers unprecedented views of the universe over a century ago.

Perched high on a hill, this London landmark not only offers breathtaking views of Greenwich but also illuminates the marvels of time and space. Walk in the footsteps of past and present astronomers and witness the wonders of the cosmos come to life.

A must-see attraction at one of London's top attractions, located in the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Greenwich

Relatively small place but not crowded. The main attraction being the prime meridien line, there is a queue for photo. Maybe better if a staff is available to manage the queue if the place is busy
