Where to Spend the New Year in the UK
In a few days, 2013 will come to a close and people all around the world will celebrate it. Some will buy low-cost fireworks in the UK while others would stay at home and enjoy the bank holiday. Whichever the case, here are some places you shouldn’t miss in the UK this New Year’s Eve.
South Bank
Visiting the Big Ben this New Year is a great idea, as it’s home to one of the most exquisite fireworks displays in the UK every year. People crowd along the footpath and wait until midnight. Once the Big Ben strikes twelve, The London Eye lights up the sky with beautiful pyrotechnic displays.
