The Chimney Lift at Battersea Power Station

You're standing inside what was once one of London's most iconic industrial structures, about to ascend 109 metres in a lift that rises through the heart of a massive brick chimney. It's a properly unique London experience—the kind of thing that makes you remember why you love this city. From the top, you get unobstructed views across Nine Elms, towards Westminster, and out towards the Surrey Hills. It's less crowded than the London Eye and feels far more intimate, with the industrial heritage of Battersea Power Station itself as your backdrop.
