AFTER THE SIGHTSEEING

Evening atmosphere

Old Bazaar and riverside dining

The old bridge area is the natural evening base for dinner and illuminated views. It is often calmer after day-trippers leave; do not equate bridge viewing with a safe swimming or jumping opportunity.

An editorial suggestion, not a live crowd ranking. Check venue hours and event programmes for your date.
