Rain couldn’t dampen the magic of standing on the Prime Meridian at Royal Observatory Greenwich! Dodging puddles, time-traveling through astronomy exhibits, and enjoying misty city views—definitely a fun, unforgettable experience.

The observatory is located on a hill and was easy to find, so I had no trouble getting there. Entry with the barcode was smooth, and perhaps because it was a weekday, there were fewer people than I expected, allowing me to explore quietly and at my own pace. There are many exhibits, so I recommend allocating plenty of time. I learned a lot from the interesting displays and had a fulfilling and enjoyable experience.

I visited the prime meridian of the Greenwich Observatory, the only center of time on Earth! You can also see the unobstructed view from the Greenwich Observatory Park toward the National Maritime Museum! It is a place you must visit at least once when traveling to England :)

Step into the Royal Observatory Greenwich, straddle the Prime Meridian, and truly touch the starting point of world time. The ancient astronomical instruments are rich in history, and from the top, you can overlook the city of London and the River Thames, offering both educational insights and a wonderful atmosphere.

I personally love the view of the London skyline from the Observatory, but otherwise, I feel the tickets are a bit expensive. It's probably a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Really worth a visit - not just to see the Prime Meredian Line and the beautiful views from the top, but also to explore the various galleries which are really interesting and educational. I learnt so much about the measurement of time which I had taken for granted. Highly recommended!
